I've tried it before, didn't really like it, not user friendly at all.

 

Made my computer fucking stuck and slow, dunno if there was a virus, plus it didn't even work. I really didn't like it.

 

Are you kidding me? This game is awesome! Just give it a chance. Just watch the trailer on main page. Just wait for an evening when there are more then 3 players. 20 weapons + 20 skills makes this game much more interesting than Soldat.

Doesn't this game user-friendly? Well, does Dota user-frieldy? In Subvein you start lvl10 with 11 skill points, you don't know which skills better suits you, you don't know you can shield with Ctrl key, you don't know you can run with Shift(at cost of high recoil), you don't know how to counter others skills, etc, etc. Also, it's an rpg, where player gain levels, and develop themselves from game to game. Nobody wonders if lvl85 always kills lvl10 in WoW? So, you shouldn't go mad if you're killed by high-leveler in Subvein. Well, at least, in Subvein you have a chance to kill high-leveler.

Really, Ben, the only maintainer and developer, did great job to make this game easier for new-comers. Of course high-levels use lot of skills. But every skill has it's drawback. If I used plasma, then I slowed down for a while. If I attack someone with venom skill than he loses health, but has higher ROF for a while. If I use invisibility, than I do only 25% of damage when I show up. So, practically, there is a very small gap between lvl10 and lvl80. lvl80 just has more variety in tactics.

2Monsteri: Don't know what are you talking about. It runs perfectly even with my netbook(1.6Atom processor). You just might need to update your openGL drivers, as this game doesn't use DirectX.

 

Uhm, I got the game but no-one was in the servers. Since it's only multiplayer I stopped playing it.. o.O

 

This game basically died some time ago... shame, it is a great game.

 

Tried this once... It was too hard for me xD I didn't like the style.

Not true about that, it is in development for few years, that's right, but it wasn't officially released yet!

 

Great game =)

 

All feel invited to #subvein on Quakenet. For now we're just trying to gather people there :)

 

Tried it. Spawnkilling was rampant. I don't like being spawnkilled.

 

Game provides cool built-in antispawnkill mechanics. Also there are gamemodes where you can't spawnkill (like rounds teammatches).

 

Yeah, that mechanic is invulnerability unless you move. Except it doesn't work very well when there are 3 enemies just waiting for you to shed that invulnerability.
