GameSpot has thrown together some impressions on Destineer's upcoming tactical shooter, Close Combat: First to Fight. Here's a nugget on the games competitive missions:

Just as important as the cooperative missions are the competitive missions, which allow you to battle against fellow human beings online. The game will ship with about eight multiplayer-only levels, and you can customize games a number of ways, from opting for random weapons to giving everyone a specific weapon, such as a sniper rifle. The environments are a bit small to accommodate the number of players, but they're highly detailed, with plenty of places to find cover and shoot from. We battled it out in a small plaza ringed with markets and shops, which provided plenty of room to maneuver. Then we fought it out in a huge courtyard with an upper balcony that gave snipers the chance to pick people off in the open. The combat itself is very fast-paced, and it can be tense as you hunt down your opponent. You can also pick up and retrieve weapons from fallen combatants, which is useful if you spot a Squad Automatic Weapon that someone dropped.
