No, I was wondering what kind of stealth you are talking about...

Is it me or stealth is really, REALLY hard compared to run and gun? Are there any benefits to it? Haven't put any points in stealth, playing recruit. Mostly focusing on sabotage, rifle and electronics (or whatever it was called) skills, so maybe it's that.

So, good gameplay with bad graphics and some glitches, but worth playing?

well, you can turn completely invisible later on which should make sneaking easy as fuck, but for now i just see stealth more as a little aid in combat

I agree, something about this game that hooks you in. Some of the abilities are pretty cool as well. Its like the girl you should be going out with but dont, not much to look at but has real substance and given a chance has a lot going for it.
Seems well worth a play through, be interesting to see how the decisions you make effect the outcome.

So far only Pistol and AR, I've not been using SMG or Shotgun ... and both Pistol and AR are on Lv2 at least (I started with Recruit, just so I can get the achievement) and I'm using primarily Accuracy and Handling boosted equipment.

Same as that, what class did you pick for your first attribute? I went with Spy, this allows me to upgarde the pistol to 15 but not the assault rifle.

Eh? You mean the starting class or something that you get mid-game? I didn't pick a starting class, I chose Recruit. No points in any ability and no AP to spend either.

Ok, thanks and from play.tm:
"With enough content to share over 30 hours of gameplay and several different endings, classes and styles to try out. Everything is affected by which decisions you make. Who you keep alive, who you kill, and your reputation with the characters around you all have a direct impact on the ending."
Sounds great..

I've been playing this for some time already, it's great. And I take my words back about the stealth in this game, once you upgrade the stealth skills it's pretty easy. And I don't find the graphics that bad, I was expecting worse. What really grinds my gears are the controls and interface. Accessing the map is just annoying and the aiming without gun skills upgraded is a total pain in the ass.
Still, IMO it's definitely worth a DL DVD, I'd say that it's even worth buying it.

How is the stealth in this game? Is it scripted like: Okay hide here. Kill this guy in this shadow or you fail. Hide body here or the AI will magically know where you are, etc.
Or is it more like Hitman where the stealth is fairly open ended and enemies have a real line of sight?

Aha! Now I see what you're talking about =) I just got the chance to pick a specialised class -- and I went for Operative, choosing my own three skills for the lv15 range;
Assault Rifles, Sabotage, Technical Aptitude.

Hitman-esque.

Regret choosing spy now at the end of the Saudi mission. Hope I get a chance to upgrade my AR more. Focusing on my pistol and close combat skills now.

I just can't get into this game. I mean, graphics and piss poor animation aside. . .well no not aside, I can't get over it. In this day and age to have NPC's with preset pathing and really poor AI is just inexcusable. Yes the story is pretty cool, as is the acting - but the games technical faults stick out like a sore thumb.

At the start; yes. Once you expand to other areas, you can unlock OTHER missions by buying intel or gaining additional info during other missions.

Put some points into weapon proficiencies and accuracy via customisation, combat is becoming more fun ..... except for a HORRIBLE statistic they put in at the end of mission briefing;
I said "if you so choose" -- I don't. I like killing 
You CAN complete the entire mission without killing anyone or setting off any alarms, but meh... I like gunning 'em down! ^_^
