In terms of mods and patching and other progress in the game mechanics, I love the new CF (2010-11). In terms of hacking and gameplay, it seems like a step down. There was a time around the end of 2009 to around the middle of 2010 [maybe?] where there were very minimal hacks and "pro players" and was still not as casual as the start, but was getting there. Then at around mid to late 2010, it all went down the crapper and we went back to hackusating ever freaking thing... I liked the game more at the very start where the only hackers were the super obvious ones, and everyone said "gg" and "nice shot" and "that was fun" and people could actually be friends with eachother, but we all know thats never coming back until we boot all the central and south americans off of the game...
