I have, I didn't really like it. But then again i'm not really interested in "wait your turn!" gametypes where you die by 1 bullet or a grenade shot from 10m away.
There was a medic tutorial in it that took me an hour...just so i could stop the bleeding from other players *sigh*. But if you don't mind them gametypes you'll like it

Well wasn't really a tutorial but an EXAM. You had to listen for an hour to some animated guy rambling about medical procedures while showing slides. *sigh*

I find the 'exams' pretty buggy aswell. I recall completing one and it not registering, so I had to do it all again.

For me the exams werent a problem, you just download the answers, set your computer to play the stupid animation for half an hour and go do something, return and take the test.

But the bitch of it is the game is pure, filtered, shit. Its nice to have a realistic game, but not to the point of boredom. I either end up playing so carefully so as not to die that it was no fun, or  get a little sloppy and die and have to sit and stare at my corpse for the next 5 minutes. Yes, most servers I played on did not even enable the team follow camera after your dead....

Posting like this since the forum's are kinda down but you can still get on it, via the links on the left of the main page

I personally like AA sometimes, when I'm bored..
But I still prefer BFV, COD, CSS and MOH over it easily...
