Best for It is suited to players who enjoy fast-paced classic arena shooters and Quake- or early Half-Life-style combat. It is especially recommended for those who can play over LAN with friends or enjoy playing solo with bots, as well as players nostalgic for Valve and GoldSrc games. However, it is not suitable for players expecting active public matches and a large concurrent player base.
