Operation 7 - Philippines

I've been playing this other FPS - Operation 7 Philippines and I enjoy it a lot. Operation 7 is in "closed" beta testing now though anyone with an E-games account (very easy to sign up) can join. Your level will be reset once the testing is over.

Operation 7 feels like the poor man's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. It runs on the oldest systems and would probably work in a laptop with a decent video card. For most pinoy gamers, almost anyone can play this game over here. The graphics isn't as eye popping as the Call of Duty 4 game (think older like Call of Duty 1) but it certainly holds up for a free game.

As you level up in this game like CoD4, you have access to more types of weapons. The weapons in the game are also customizable where you could choose to have a faster reload for a smaller clip size or place a 4x32 scope on your M16 (not very useful really). I don't know if they are going to add "super powers" like an airstrike or attack dogs like in CoD since this is merely just a beta.

My 2 gripes with this game is that I sometimes my connection gets choppy for a few moments when a bunch of people join in or get out a game. I also don't like the costumes, I can barely tell who's side that person is unless I see a name over that person's head. I wish that each side would always have some arm band or something to signify visually what side they are on.

So I recommend anyone who likes FPS to try this game now and help the beta testing. I don't really know how they'll charge for this game for real. In game, you have to pay gold to get bullets for a certain amount of days (also with your suits/costumes) - hopefully you don't really have to pay real money for bullets.
