I haven't seen so many ""content creators"" and ""gaming outlets"" collectively gushing over a game in years. It gives me pre launch Starfield impressions. The mismatch between the mouth pieces and players is noticeable. One side saying it's mediocre at best and the other screaming RETURN TO FORM over and over.

Someone is BSing somewhere and it's obvious. Which is it?

It's basically 2042.1 with a BF4 skin on it. Plays like COD Warzone or something. No weight to movement at all, feels like you're skating across ice. Gunplay is like laser tag with COD-esque full auto spraying across the map. Destruction is once again limited to designated points on the map and is scripted to trigger and then stop at certain segments. Gameplay flow and maps seem like something a free to play bf ripoff would have. Just feels off overall.

I'm thinking there will be a few months of egregious coping about the game and then it will fall off a cliff like V and 2042 did. Return to form it is not.
