Nearly all of my favorite FPS playstyles are represented in this game and the freedom of choice you have when choosing your class and loadout is just mind boggling.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
71 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
However, the destruction is really just the icing on the cake because the combat design and gunplay are very well done and feel very nice to play with.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
First things first optimization of this game is fantastic, I want to thank all of the developers that optimized this game because it feels like you are in heaven, the most important thing in game optimization is stable fps with small spikes between lowest and highest fps.
Multiplayer

The combination of destruction, movement, creativity, map design and sheer chaos gives it an identity that most multiplayer shooters desperately lack.
