This was the most fun I've ever had in a FPS, let alone game, ever.

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
Team Dystopia is an amateur team that has worked their asses off on their spare time to create this highly detailed, immersive, futuristic, action-packed cyberpunk multiplayer game.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Despite not building it from scratch and using a very high-quality tool already available in the market, the Dystopia (amateur) team managed to replace virtually all of the artistic assets and core aspects of gameplay on Valve's Half-Life 2 Source graphics/physics engine.

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The only things that I wish were out would be avilibility to make maps (if you go to hammer in the game files you can make lost coast maps with Sourcetest) straight forward objectives that can help people who just started (people like me) and I also would like some kind of a guide since I did not know how cyberspace worked also a story mode.
