As the title states, it is so far underwhelming. I managed to get into a game a few times but was disconnected quickly. Now I constantly get network error messages, some stating I disconnected from Live. I check; and guess what, I am not signed out of Live.
UPDATE: I tried the second episode of the beta, didn't get to spend too much time on it. However, there was vast improvement. I was able to get into games and stay in. Random disconnects were greatly reduced. Gameplay is quick and quite smooth. It is easy to jump into and get a feel for. Sometimes the join time seemed on the lengthy side... wasn't that long of a wait though.
Overall went from detest to enjoyment.
