Is Havoc worth it?
Havoc is worth it if…

Walls are a suggestion
The twist here is semi-destructible environments, and it changes how a round plays. That wall the defenders are hiding behind? It is a door you have not opened yet. Shoot it out and you have a new angle, a shortcut, or a very rude surprise for whoever was holding the other side. Defenders can fight back by reinforcing walls and barricading, so every round becomes a quiet argument about which walls stay up and which ones come down. You drop a breach, the wall opens, and suddenly the plan both teams had is a memory. It is the kind of tactical layer that rewards thinking one corner ahead of everyone else.
Pick your mode, pick your fight
Bomb Defusal is the headline act: plant or defend, buy your weapons each round, and lean on your team because going lone wolf gets you buried. There is an economy with a sense of humour about it, since alongside the usual rifles you can save kill points for a railgun or a minigun. Headshots decide fights, so aim matters more than patience.
What should you know before playing?
Can you play it with friends?
Yes, and that is the best way to play it. There is voice chat for coordinating bomb sites or just causing problems together, and custom lobby settings turn a normal match into something entirely different. Lower the gravity and people start climbing buildings. The game was made by a two-person team, and it shows its indie roots in both the charm and the rough edges.
Is it polished?
Friendlier than most bomb-defusal shooters. There is no round-stopping pause to sweat over, aiming down sights behaves predictably, and the arcade pace means a bad round is over in minutes. The gunplay has its own quirks that take some getting used to, but nothing here demands hundreds of hours before you stop embarrassing yourself.
