I don't think this game is a good choice for Cain. Mostly hardcore realism gamers will find this attractive.
Basically, you have WAY too many controls to worry about for any casual gamer. To do anything in that game requires strict teamwork with communication between players completely vital. This means that you'll need a large Ventrilo or Teamspeak server.
I mean, we could jump in TF2 "style" but everyone would be everywhere doing everything and thus wouldn't be fun at all.
The learning curve is ridiculous. Expect a casual gamer to spend AT LEAST a good week just learning how to operate vehicles decently as well as getting into the "groove" of the game. I believe a joystick is essentially a must for operating helicopters and jets - I could be wrong.
On top of all that are the visual, gameplay, and system glitches that occur while playing. I tried the game about 3 or 4 months ago so things may have very well changed but I doubt it.
You will need a relatively high-end system to play this game under high settings with acceptable frame-rate (of course "acceptable" is relatively subjective).
I for one am a huge realism enthusiast and would not recommend this game for anyone who isn't serious about realism gaming. I think this would prove to be frustrating more often than fun for the majority of the community
