Anyone played this yet? RTS + FPS is win in my book, but how does this title play?

No idea, Total Biscuit says he is going to put together a WTF is for it, but i haven't heard much about it.  The gameplay looks ok from the videos I've seen, but my biggest concern is actually that the community isn't big enough to actually have games all the times of day I'm able to play. It isn't even showing up on the top 100 games played on Steam (store.steampowered.com/stats)

With NS2 slowly taking shape, lots of unbalance still, but its just plain unifinished, I also don't feel a particularly compelled to buy another FPS/RTS hybrid.  If it looks like it has a stable core community I might get it on steam sale eventually though.

I've been playing this one.

The closest thing to compare it to is Natural Selection, though both sides more or less mirror each other. It definitely takes teamwork to win, and you're fucked if you have a garbage commander.

Worth the purchase price if you've got cash that's burning a hole in your pocket.

Yeah, I'm with Mala. It's obviously Steamworks.

Also, Games for Windows = Brand and Standard for features. Games for Windows Live = Application. There is a huge difference.

I know this is a chicken and egg question. But hows the number of servers and/or size of the player-base?

There's always a bunch of empty servers, but there's always two or three servers that are nearly full.

From what I understand, the community is small but active and the dev's are super into the community.
