After training mode is completed new players are not left on their own, instead being guided by missions. 
These are given to allow players to become familiar with some of the basic game functions like sending email and creating new games. The rewards are worthwhile though, allowing some modest upgrades to get a player over the initial hump of not having earned any money. Creating matches is easy enough once the first steps are explained and the customizations of each game gives many options for grudge matches or practicing any weak points.
The levels are well thought out with attention given to being able to use different angles of attack to overcome any “campers”. A constant pressure must be maintained to ensure victory, staying in one spot just means being easily surrounded unless the whole team works 
together to prevent being overrun. This makes the game fun, cooperation being so strongly encouraged that a camaraderie develops in the course of just a couple matches. Good tactics and communication become just as important to victory as good weapon choice and aim are.
Mission Against Terror is a fun game that will give many hours of enjoyment and has some strong potential for bigger competitions down the road. With a focus on encouraging teamwork instead of buying bigger weapons or better armor, MAT sets itself apart from a lot of FPS games that are out or coming out. With counter strike being the obvious inspiration to the game I can only hope the developers listen as closely to their community as CS has, if so this game has a bright future indeed.
