How it plays

Friends join one lobby for team modes like search and destroy, co-op zombie and killhouse runs, or social modes like Trouble in Terrorist Town and prop hunt, with voice chat built in.
Reloading and aiming by hand make even casual matches tense and funny.
On PC there is also a large library of community maps and modes.
