Commenting on a game without even trying it out amounts to nothing but negativity - when one could be ACTIVELY working to improve whatever points they find fault with. Blood Frontier is nothing like Quake 3, or any other game for that matter - sure there are some aspects which are quite common to ALL First Person Shooters, but the gameplay itself is unique and original. Uninformed comments like this just irk me, play the game and then get back to me, otherwise your comment is entirely invalid. Thanks! :) Phil’s comment is exactly what is wrong with the OSS gamers.

Rather than innovate they think copying proprietary software will do. No, it wont. No one pays less (or nothing) safe in the knowledge it had 60-70% of the features (in this case playability.) There are some awesome open source games and apps out there, but this isn't one of them. It's a tired Quake III clone. *sigh*
