Great commander gameplay, with good abilities. The titan was an amazing thing you could use offensively too.
Mechs were amazing, they were made to fuck infantry and they did just that. Their mini guns and shit has 30mm explosives and would fuck stalled advances and they could hold their own against tanks by playing peakaboo.
Vehicles were important and very good, but they didn't completely invalidate infantry gameplay the European tanks fucked, and the Russian hover tank was a hard hitting targets but if infantry got behind ANY vehicle in that game, it was over and you knew it.
The small 4x4s had great handeling
Heavy class machine guns were awesome with the narrowing more accurate fire
Sniper classes were amazing
Titan mode was peak
Conquest was either work together or get rolled over
Defense maps like Gibraltar were a shit ton of fun
Unlocks were easy to get, no "hero" gay-play, community servers were awesome,
>Sound
Yeah, sounds coulda been better
>UI
A bit too simple
>Gfx
It wouldn't have killed them to add SOME shrubbery to the flat deserts and euro snow wastelands
