I remember the summer that came out. I was like 14/15. I had just built my first PC that Christmas, an fx6300/r9 270x build.

That alpha ran great on it, coming off of playing ut99 on shitty integrated graphics, the game looked fucking awesome.

Between that and the first Titanfall it was a good time for great shooters that would eventually be abandoned.

Jesus I sound like all the old farts who where reminiscing about ut99 at the time.
