Cool

Just downloaded a demo test of a game called "Hired Team", it has two maps with online play and offline play with bots. The graphics engine could rival quake 3's for eye candy and the weapons are great, it makes me think of quake 1 with sof weapons, it's probably the most fun i've had with deathmatch for ages. So what are you waiting for?, do yourself a favour and download this now

Unhappy

Tried it, it crashed and burned in Win2K, the only program I've found so far that locked it up so bad I had to to a hard shutdown (ctrl-alt-del had no effect, had to power down and restart).
Maybe they'll get it right on the next release!, The screenshots look good though.

Game looks good, but its not ready to play yet-- at least not for me. The game will not remember my control settings. After I set them, they work for a short time and then the controls mysteriously do not work-- not reset, the control setting page shows that there isn't any key assigned to the task (i.e., jumping)even though I had assigned one a short time before.

Ok. I played it in Single Player and it needs some work. The character dies to easily and the sound needs some work.

Sometimes when I fire the pistol the sound is kinda quiet and it them get louder when other shots are fired.

That game needs some work.

Yeh, i agree with the comments that it has problems, but this is a very early test demo meant for feedback, not even a beta. I'm looking forward to the full release, i think it's gonna be great
