This is essentially a UT99 mod. It provides an inventory system, some modified versions of UT99 games, and some basic weapons and levels. As a single player game, it isn't great, but is a nice change if you prefer modern military hardware to UT's arcade-style weapons. I found after 30 minutes, though, that I missed the UT weapons.
As a modern release, this would be a rip-off and a disappointment. However, for $6, it's a good buy and a nice change of pace. I suggest that people play UT99 first, and perhaps UT2004, and then come back for this one if they still want more.
A few neat aspects of the game:
- limited inventory, you pick the load-out after each respawn
- the bots drive the vehicles, and act as teammates, and do both well
- some game varients are pretty cool - one has you required to kill the opposing captain four times (shooting the grunts buys you nothing)
