I'm playing Enemy Territory mostly because of its combination of teamwork and personal advancement. It's a LOT of fun to play if you have a good team that reacts to your messages, that tells you about problems so that you can prevent the enemy from achieving their objective etc.

Usually I play with one or two friends I've known for about four years now. We've always played Quake 3 CTF before, again because of the teamplay aspects. And that's where we get our kicks from. I know that one friend is usually better than I am regarding hit and kill ratio and one is a bit worse, but together we make one hell of a team. We're out for the objective, not honor, glory, kills or whatever. We play classes the team needs at the moment, not necessarily the ones we like (or play) best. We watch each others backs, move as a team, have our tactics, and that's why it's fun.

The stats presented at the end of each map are a nice ego boost (if you've been better than usual) or confirm the feeling you had that you coulnd't hit the wall right in front of you, but other than that they are of no real interest to us.
