    Here's the gist of things. Fast paced team based shooter similar to a hybrid of GunZ (minus blatant hacking and "advandced" techniques that consist entirely of glitch abuse) and Team Fortress 2. The only problems are that people have a tendency to lag spike (AKA, forcing yourself to lag to make it hard for people to kill you, people make it obvious if you watch their ping) and, for those who are in the States or Canada, most players are in Europe.

    Surprisingly good game for freeware. Anyone who wants to play, I can set up a room sometime as it beats playing against random lagging mooks.

    FINALLY, I've met someone that plays this game.

    He speaks the truth, essentially that's wat S4 is. Don worry bout the lag TOO much though. Usually it's fairly minor or it goes so bad that you're better off leaving the room.

    SMG+Plamsa/Counter Sword (preferably Plasma)+Semi-Rifle=AUTO WIN!

    Sure, I'll play whenever. (though I have been playing this game for months so...yea <<)

    Xaris3514, I'm usually in English/Speed/Free. I tend to get more even matches there that aren't 5-1 Touchdown matches with allies that don't know what defense means.

    Get used it that. XD

    Essentially, that's always been a problem with some touchdown matches. (That's y I play Deathmatch most of the time. Highway is the godliest map EVER.)

    My computer hates Highway. I can't get a good framerate on it. On most maps, I get about 30-36 FPS, on highway, I get about 20-24.

    well it is a big, colorful map. << If Highway doesn't go well, Neden 2's a good alternative.

    Play any Touchdown map except Station 2 IMO... (too easy to score if you have the anchor skill.)

    Station 1 has the same problem. Both of them are fun maps with small rooms. 6 is ideal for Station 1, 8 for Station 2. Too much more than that, on the other hand, and they get too crowded with people using the cheapest tricks to score.

    Not cheap if you're the one scoring. >=)

    lol, anyways, yea they both have their advantages and disadvantages. Really, it all depends on the team.

    Not bad. That's a full 160 round rite there. XD

    If anything, I'd suggest getting the flying skill. It's the perfect spraying combo with the HMG and decent with Semi and SMG, especially Semi cuz it helps you get onto good and hard to reach camping spots.

    The only thing Wings will do for you is paint a big bullseye on you for semi-rifles, rail guns and cannonades.

    Not unless you use it at the rite time and place.

    The bullseye really comes in when you're out in big open areas. Other than that, lets just say it's a smaller one. :/ (nothin in this game is perfect u no...)

    That r you could try shield and HMG.

    Now, THAT's a great idea for defense. I'll have to try it if I find an excuse to licence the HMG.

    Does 100 clips per round and really cheap weapon work for you?

    True get a SMG and you will be fine or a Semi (If you are Accurate). I dont use Guns it all Swords for me but i still Pwn with a Gun. S4 League Rocks BTW.

    I've tried playing it, but my computer just sucks too much to play any modern game besides Indigo Prophecy. Kind of disappointing since it seemed so fun.
