Are you on crack? Learn how to set your controls, you CAN toggle your weapons w/ the wheel mouse. The prone/crouch/stand up thing.. if you wanna be prone, your prone, if you wanna stand up, your up, if you wanna crouch, press crouch, who cares, just press the designated button like most other games are. The health thing i agree with, makes it too easy and kinda boring.
The graphics! Your insane to say they don't "feel" better, they kick ass.
