For anyone who was disappointed with A:CM's multiplayer, I have recently discovered a good replacement for it. Try Natural Selection 2. Didn't even know it existed till I read some Penny Arcade article on A:CM that gave it a nod.
Now, yes, tactical play has rather more of a part in NS2 than the running and gunning or running and biting I should say but it doesn't really matter because you can easily strip those elements out by getting the Combat Mode mod or going to any Combat Mode server since it's a server-side mod, thus not requiring one to install the mod to play it.
Perhaps the only problem with NS2 is that it's rather demanding for a game, graphics wise. Anyway, that's about it. Spread the word to anyone interested in some humans vs. aliens action.
