They make a few twists on DoD 1.6 for the better, such as weapon balance and control scheme. You can now aim down the sights with your rifle which are great for coutering snipers or long range enemies now, instead of keeping it medium like the original. Grenades launched from the rifle are a bit of a dissapointment but hey, it's a twist on the original and it works. It makes for some much better sniper removal situations. The assualt class now has a punch, which can save you in close quarter battles when you run out of ammo, which has saved my rear 3 times so far since it came out today. The M1 Carbine is set as the sidearm for the Bazooka class soldier, and has been dropped in power to compensate for the inclusion of the bazooka. All in all I'd say the game is a good remake of a classic game, and the updated grahpics and slightly altered maps make for a much more rewarding and enjoyable experiance.
