The team play dynamics are good, when you have a good team. The game doesn't shine unless you're either playing on a server with people who care about winning or are playing a singleplayer map and don't have to deal with people at all! People get frustrated with this game because some overriding force in the anonymity of games turns normal people into teamkilling asshats. There needs to be a more enforced rules structure and more accountability. Also, some way to keep track of friends in game would be super.
"But think about the kids. It is clear that this game is being marketed towards kids. How dare they!"
Most asinine statement ever. Saying its being marketed towards kids is just as valid as saying its being marketed towards any group that has money and inclination. Also, as to the indignation, parents should probably be busy parenting instead of worrying about how companies make their money. It doesn't violate anyone's rights, if you don't want your kid seeing a clothed (all the good parts, anyway, not that that matters) woman with a hole in her face, don't let them read PC Gamer. And don't let them buy games you find personally objectionable.
