Blacklight Retribution - F2P FPS

[Loggahead]

Has anyone played this? It's surprisingly good. I have put a little time into it and enjoy it. The graphics are great and it is a very solid shooter.

I'm very cautious when it comes to free to play games and admittedly shy away from them as a general rule. It's model is that you gain in game currency from playing that you spend on temporary weapon/attachment unlocks. Think of it like Counterstrike but your unlocks last for 24 hours, not just a round. Currency gains fast. After just 3 kills, you can unlock a new scope, not to mention the currency you gain for sticking through an entire match and capturing flags, defending points, etc.

If you haven't checked it out, give it a look and maybe we can squad up and play while we're waiting for all these other titles to come out.

I've played it a little. Just got it a few days ago. It certainly seems pretty decent, especially for a free to play game. Although, playing it only reminds me of how much of an "angry gamer" I become when I'm getting my ass kicked in a multiplayer FPS.

They have a Steam sale going right now where you can several permanent unlocks, items, etc for $10 (regularly $20).

I really enjoy this game quite a bit. It's a good distraction.
