This game could have been good. The graphics are good (not great, but they're up to date), and the menu and interface are well designed and it's an inexpensive game. Thats where the good things end.
The AI in this game is ridiculously easy. I'm an experienced FPS player, and I beat the entire game in one brief sitting on medium difficulty. The gameplay is identical to Quake (as the game is based on the Quake engine), and each "battle" is either a Deathmatch, Capture The Flag, or Assault match, and they get repetitive very quickly. The weapon upgrade system is also flawed as you need to reapply the weapon upgrades each time you respawn, which takes time, and in a speed-deathmatch style game usually gets you killed.
The plot in this game feels like it was thrown in as an afterthought. The intro and ending videos are merely in-game screen capture videos that last a couple of seconds each, and the plot is explained through blocks of text. Seriously, who wants to read what's going on in a video game? The plot itself has no development at all, and merely consists of an intro paragraph describing the planet and the war, and a conclusion paragraph after you beat the "boss".
Speaking of the boss, he actually beat ME when I played the game, but thanks to a huge unresolved bug, the game thought I beat the boss and let me see the 4 second long ending cinematic and ending paragraph. The boss level is the only difficult match in the entire game.
A couple of other things that I didn't like about the game: you can't skip the intro cinematics (the studio logo, etc) when you start the game. It's only 15 seconds long, but still annoying. Also, when I checked the multiplayer I found 6 servers with 12 people total playing. That's just sad.PRO:
Decent graphics
Cheap
No serial number to enter in during installation
CON:
AI is WAY too easy
Very repetitive and at times buggy gameplay
Half baked plot
Multiplayer is deserted
It's a Quake clone
OVERALL: If you want to play a fast paced deathmatch shooter, get Quake or Unreal or Painkiller. You aren't missing anything if you skip Warpath. It's an unoriginal shooter that deserves its place in the bargain bin.
