Yowza! 
For any Counter-Strike fans, this is actually a Half-Life mod/add-on that combines CS and HL in MP fashion. Only it also adds martial arts type fighting using key combos, if you want to instead of using strictly guns, and has a Matrix feel to it (you can dodge bullets, flip, slo-mo after a kill depending on the server settings). You can buy certain weapons at the beginning or grab a quick random config and off you go. There are also power-ups you can find that increase ammo, fighting skills, health, etc.
In DM, 8 straight kills (i.e. without dying in between) gets you a 'Specialist' status where you get extra 'powers'/points BUT makes you a prime target as others get more points for offing you. In other games, you are part of a team that has to disable computers or defend them (as well as other scenarios).
This game also has BOT add-ons. You can add bots on the fly if you feel the game-play is slowing down. New skins to choose from (matrix chars) that show up player depending on the map you are playing too.

A manual comes with the download in HTML form to explain more.
Off to snipe some bots! ;D
