A.C.R.E (Annoying Co-op Ruining Experience). We used it on Zeus for months last year and it was the most terrible thing ever to plague our gaming nights. Every week usually new updates for it or TS. Sometimes when you did update it, it didn't work with the TS version that you had. Or if you did update your TS it broke ACRE. At some point the regulars somewhat grasped the whole ACRE installation and updating thing, but usually there was one or two new guys playing too. So on most gaming nights one or two of our regulars spent good amount of gaming night to get ACRE working for the new guy.
The directional voice was great. The radios on the other hand were either the worst radios ever or they are simulated by someone who doesn't know a thing about them. My 5⬠PMR walkie talkie works better than those things. So usually on missions the main focus was to get someone on the HQ or other fire team to hear you. At some point you just gave up and used the text chat instead.
Disclaimer: This rant of mine is based on ACRE as it was about six months ago and also should not be taken too seriously.
