Great game, if you ever played MtG you will most likely like this and feel at home quickly.
It isn't yet as deep as MtG but due to the 3 lane format and only the first edition having been released, this might change in future. Since so many bad reviews exclusively dislike the paymet model, but even professional reviews don't explain it properly, let me put some things straight: You don't need to buy any more than the initial 10 boosters that come with the game or buy individual cards to play 80% of the modes. You can play even the most expensive and rare cards for free either as part of a preconstructed deck, or by playing a phantom draft in which you get 5 temporary boosters from which you can pick cards to construct a deck (you don't keep these cards though, you can play up to 5 times with them or untill you lose 2 matches-you cn do a new draft every 30 minutes). After lerning the game in free draft mode, you can start using the 5 tickets that also come with the game to win more boosters.
You only need to buy cards if you want to play with individually constructed permanent decks.
And if you just play casual constructed, you can often construct a powerfull deck for less than 1€.
In competitive constructed you will need the best cards though and in some cases even multiple copies of them, so this can get expensive. Actually my initial 10 boosters contained cards worth more than the game costed, but it was luck; i decided to sell 3 cards to buy another 10 boosters which didn't really contain any high value cards at all xD

pros:
-its quake
-has the best map ever made, q3dm17 aka the longest yard

cons: you can't select it without playing a custom game which requires owning a champions pack, so you need to wait untill it randomly gets voted for which can take hours
-they made modifications to that map, reskinn would have been enough if not 2 much already

very nice job, I am happy to see one of the games using the Spring RTS engine make it to steam (not counting evo rts, which didnt install/launch properly for me)this was totally smooth to run and I could even use my existing Spring account to login, it seems. If you played any Spring based game, you will find yourself at home pretty quickly but might miss (or enjoy, who knows) the depth of the teching system and unit variety. If you come from other RTS game however, you will find the controls amazing and the amount of possible tactics might be overwhelming at first, but provides hundreds of good gameplay hours if you don't give up to quickly. years of good development have gone into this game, but I would also like to credit the engine. I am not a dev, but a heavy user :p
so, pros and cons compared to other spring games:

pros:
terraforming- this is now sadly disabled by default in TA, since it caused bad lags (does this work smoothly in big games here?)
commander morphing and development
lots of players to battle with
nice own lobby and improved grphics, own unit models (mostly)
probably the most noob friendly spring game


cons:
build/order menu (might be possible to change ingame, but default one is just horrible, especially the fact that it closes after each selection)
less units
less tech levels/differnt tech system (u might like it better, I personally don't)
screen can get a bit to colorfull for my taste, with many range indicators etc but again i guess this is just the default

summary: if you like RTS games, this is a must-have. If you like this and wish it had EVEN MORE good stuff, check out the other spring based games, too

Game is good but Miramar is a terrible map, please stop forcing it onto us every season. A lot of people are now regularly quitting at the start of matches because they want to play a different map. Reenable map selection or at least offer more diverse queues, or the game will probably not last much longer.

best screensaver ever

Update: There are now tools kiddies can use to make other ppl crash on demand, sadly this is no joke

Best Worms sincce a while in my opinion and I played almost all of em except some of the 3d series. There is lots of hilarious new stuff and then online multiplayer seems to be working decently well, allthough i did have some lag/issues on the release date. U can now craft weapons (it can be turend off if u dont like it) so i think there are more weaps here than in any other worms game i have played. Even the rope works nicely again. Haven't even touched the campaign yet but i bet it will be classic worms, like the rest of the package. Only minor thing I wish could still be added to make it the 100% perfect worms game are the modificators like in wwp. hiding in buildings and using the new vehicles is also good fun. there doenst seem to be a water/phisics system like in worms revolution but with all the new stuff i personally haven't missed it yet. 9.5/10
