  1. The gaming public has wanted a good team based game for a long time, now it has one.
  2. 90
    Pure, unadulterated fun, especially when you’re playing the game with other people.
  3. If you are patient, willing to work on developing an online gaming community, and looking to play a well-designed, team-based first person shooter Global Operations is the perfect fit.
  4. 84
    It's a damn good game with a lot going for it if those with the machines to run it will give it a chance.
  5. If you manage to go through all of the connection demands and find a fully functional server, the game can offer you a thrilling multiplayer experience.
  6. Kind of like having to eat a banana split with your hands--just because it's a little sloppy doesn't mean it isn't still good...One of the deepest and most satisfying multiplayer tactical shooters currently available.
  7. 80
    With versatile server options allowing operators with a dedicated machine to run a variety of servers, the potential is there for massive success over the net. We're more than happy to recommend it to you heartily.

    I had a really difficult time adapting to the inconsistent accuracy of the weapons. [May 2002, p.92]
  9. It’s not the counter-strike killer we are all hanging out for but it definitely adds some fresh new options to the style of game.

    I have a rock-solid DSL connection and a high-end Athlon rig and still suffered atrocious lag. [June 2002, p.74]
  11. The major problem holding it back is its poor network performance.
  12. 66
    It feels like a game that was rushed out the door, failing to offer all the core features an online game should have.
  13. Computer Gaming World
    60
    The AI, for both team and enemy, is absolutely atrocious. [July 2002, p.64]

    After ancient times of Doom this was my most played FPS, so I remember it fondly.
