It is CRITICAL to help your spouse understand the difference between ONLINE games and OFFLINE games. IE: Games which I can pause at any time and say "Sure honey - let's chat!/Watch TV/etc" versus ones where I'm listening to 20 different people on vent and really won't be paying much attn to what you are saying.
I loved the idea of this game and had fun playing it for a bit. But the lack of matchmaking balance and the obvious hacking just completely killed the fun for me. There were 3 days a couple weeks back when they turned on Punkbuster - and it was just tremendous fun. 3 days later they patched it back off because "people were complaining of lag" (wtf?) and it went right back to being insta-gibbed over and over. Never logged in again.
