Still feels pretty good. Not sure what you've missed, but now we've got a third faction with the squids. They have zombies, medium armoured Elite from Halo, and Tripods from War of the Worlds. Bugs have new sub factions with the predator stain and sometimes missions into the gloom, and bots have the incinerator corps and jetpack squadron. Predator strain and incinerator corps are motherfuckers to deal with. All three factions have maps with small urban environments to mix things up. Squids and bugs have megacity maps; really tight close quarter combat, eagle strikes usually hit building instead of where you need them, and super destroyers have to move to get line of sight of targets before deploying orbital strikes. But in the megacities you fight alongside SEAF troopers. So it's cool to see them, but run for the hills if you see one try to toss a grenade. Also, plenty of new warbonds and weapons

Damn, a third faction?? I definitely need to play again.
