NDA has been lifted so I will try and get some screens later.

The gameplay is very much like the original GR, slow and tactical. that doesn't stop the COD players rushing around but they get killed fast. It is very much future based with unlocks such as cloak, oracle (which sends a scan out and highlights enemies in a given radius around you and all on your team can see) etc.

3 classes, Sniper/Recon, Assault and Support. I usually dislike the sniper classes in games but really enjoy in this game as you get the cloak to use and can have sub-machine guns as a primary instead of the rifles.

All weapons have multiple add-ons to buy with XP and looks like plenty of weapons in there too. Graphics are really nice and even though it's third person, over the shoulder view it works nicely except when sometimes you can 'cheat' with it to see over obstacles. There are iron sights/scope views on all weapons but some look a bit odd especially pistols as it looks like it's floating in front of you with no hand on it.

You can go prone! You can run and slide into cover, cover has a sticky system using 'space' and a 'jump over' with 'E' and all feels like it flows nicely.

There are 4 maps which although enclosed do have a few ways through and options for flanking and some with obvious choke points which is where the snipers cloak and assaults rush (run forward with a tactical shield which stores on your back when not used) come into play.

People did seem to work together.

All-in-all I am liking it and would play this in the future and perhaps even buy weapons/unlocks etc which I have never done in other play-to-win games.

They are totally separate developments. A couple of ex-co-workers have played the GRFS adversarial dev versions and they basically said it totally rocks and its clear that Redstorm (devs for GRFS MP) know their business. One of them buddies is pretty hardcore tactical shooter guy so...

I'm not liking the hours that the server is up.

I hate spawning 193m from the action. I get tired of all the running. biggrin

Are you in the beta for Xbox or PC? Also, please tell me there are no health packs and power-ups. I hate that arcade stuff.

PC and no health packs or power-ups but your health does re-gen in cover but very slowly due to some future battlefield auto-triage system or something.
