Some people have no life, and this is the only way they can feel good about themself.

As for the original poster, at first when you start it is frustrating, as much as some people say it's easy to jump right into, it's not. There's a learning curve. Give it a few hours and you'll notice things become easier and more fluid. The other thing about matchmaking is some times you get a group of players who buddied up. I can't begin to tell you the number of games I've gone into with guys/gals in their 30's-40's when my team was only in their teens.

Also this isn't so much a run and gun game, you have to watch out running behind someone becuse if you don't get the fisticuff then it becomes who can hit who twice and get the kill. Also stay away from the AK-47, it takes a full clip to kill someone.
If you play sniper rifle and pistole, especially in Ice Cave you'll find the players just run around with the pistole and barely ever use the sniper. The first time I played that one I was getting angry because they just ran around one shot killing everyone, so you adapt and do the same thing.

There's only a few complaints I have with the multiplayer deathmatch. The respawning of opposing team players behind you. Example is Ice Cave, I was at the south end(the side with the two walls that people climb up to snipe) I was just up at the cover spot just before the entry way to the lower level, a player came down the center area and I killed him/her. 10-15 seconds later he shoots me from behind. Not only was it him it was two other players as well. So that's a bad place to be for more than a few seconds unless you keep running to the back area to make sure they're not respawning on you.
Same thing in Temple, game started it was a mad dash for the Hammer and I killed two guys/gals going for it. Still in cover the both of them respawned behind me, where our team first spawned at.
Also I'm not a jerk, on several occassions people respawn right in front of me or they run out of a respawn room and I'm right behind them, I don't kill them. I know maybe I'm a nice guy but it's kind of crappy to kill someone right as they respawn. But I will add there's alot of a-holes who will, one match I had a guy with the Hammer sitting there blowing up everyone just as they respawned. The jack-ass was a level 30 something. Once again ego thing.
I was playing one match and a guy spawned right in front of me, we sat for two seconds looking at each other but when he saw me turn away we ran off together spliting up into different directions. At the end of the game the guy had a mic and said thanks for not killing him and we had a good laugh about how we can all be friends.
One last complaint, and this isn't about the game but the players. I'm finding that I'm enjoying playing with people across the pond more than people in the states. The guys here in the states for the most part are alright but I get more of them that are just a-holes. Trash talking and having no fun it seems, almost like leveling up is their job. I was playing one game and this group of idiots(all buddied up and levels 30 and above) played against myself(lvl 13 at the time) and a group of 3-9 lvl's. During the game they're saying go back to Call of Duty you pus**es, and then they began to call me a N****r, yes the N-word. First off I'm not black, the guys saying this and my teammates weren't either. I have never played with a over seas player who's called someone a N****r. Is this just our American ignorance or what.

But I will say I'm enjoying this game alot, I've had the great opportunity to play in several matches with Naughty Dog, and they've all been fun.
I will say there are some Naughty Dog's that aren't that good, might be the janitor at the office sneaking on or something.
