I've seen a lot of people who show interest for this game and want to support it, but are on the fence for the price.
Most of the arguments are that they don't know if they will get their monies worth. . .
If it's coming down to gameplay I ask what you are so worried about? The Melee + Shooter Genre has been very kind to gamers over the years.
Just check out some older titles and see for yourself:
Natural Selection:

Alien Vs. Predator:

Savage:

Gunz: The Duel:

And that's before I list Vampire Slayer (http://www.moddb.com/mods/vampire-slayer) and about 100 other Zombie Games & Mods. . .
Even titles like Rune:HoV and Team Fortress:2 could get honorable mention depending on what mode you're playing. . .
The point is the genre automatically plays it safe by having something for almost every Player that comes into it.
(Making for plenty of good gameplay / replay value)
It's also a style of game that's best to get in at launch when everyone is still learning the mechanics. I've waited for the price to drop on these types of games before and by the time you get into them the community is usually very tight nit leaving you to play with the few remaining pubbies with the occasional leet/pro player coming in to show you how it's done.
Sadly I may be in this group as well; however, being unemployed and living in a small city that had a major factory close down recently . . .
But if I find work before the end of April certainly hope to join you guys :)
. . . and to give a full review of the game
