what's your verdict on this?

i hate the art style but the game is kinda fun though to be honest

>>718136827 (OP)
decent game
good destruction mechanics
live service gook slop

>>718136827 (OP)
I have no friends to play with and I had a bad experience with randoms so I stopped playing

>>718136827 (OP)
/v/ has no friends

I ran around and shot people on release and didn't understand what made it special at all. I don't play shooters anymore.

>>718136827 (OP)
these retards should have just made a battlefield clone and it would have blown up like crazy
this game show format, small teams and gay skins killed the interest for most people

>>718137302
>>718137413

me neither but it's still kinda fun.

>>718137579
it's kinda like apex legends except every round is like the clutch at the end of the game. i do enjoy the fast movement and crazy-ness of it. dont care about the skins.

it's kinda funny how desperate people are for a new battlefield. like they really need it to forget everything else that is going on in the world haha. for me battlefield is too arcady anyway. i'd rather play squad where i have actual teamplay.

>>718136827 (OP)
Played it.
It was boring.

>>718136827 (OP)
swtiching to a "i hate it but" type of thread?

It's a "you had to be there" kind of game
if you didn't join the game during the OB or S1, you missed out and can't understand why so many dedicated players of this game have a a love/hate relationship with it.

For any player that downloads the game today and tries to play, they'll only be met with the least fun matches they'll ever play, especially if they soloq. I cannot, in good concience, reccomend people picking this game up today, unless you have 2 or 4 other friends willing to suffer. I tried getting my friends into this game. They all quit it and never joined back. I don't blame them, if it wasn't for the sunk cost fallacy (10 bucks back in S1) and my need to climb the ranked ladder, i'd have moved on long ago too.

>>718136827 (OP)
Can be enjoyable if you have a dedicated group to play with. Otherwise a terrible game.

>7 seasons for a "stay in party" option
What a fucking joke
>Tournament mode is competitivly unviable due to griefing/teaming/3rd party
>official major will be 3v3 format
>3v3 is pure fucking ass and boring as hell
The new game mode is also ass, 3v3 with infinite coins and loadout swapping is nowhere near "final round" rules and makes for an overall shitty mode. That's besides the reskinned meteor shower event.

The game also suffers from a lot of bugs and glitches, me and my friends sometimes get 5 second stutters or straight up crashes.

>>718136827 (OP)
Blowing up the cashbox and sending it down like 3 floors of the building for me to steal is always a good time.
Fun shit to play casually with a bro

>>718136827 (OP)
Destruction is super cool, but the style ruins it for me.
It's way too purple and yellow. The coins are lame. I don't like the setting.

Also it feels insincere. Right now I'm looking for games that take themselves seriously. The finals is too goofy for me.

>>718136827 (OP)
It's so aggresively generic, first time I saw it I thought it's like one of those fake videogames fictional characters play in movies and shit
You could say the developer is soulless-maxxing

>>718136827 (OP)
The devs bravely continued the tradition of making god awful games that then get slowly patched into a more playable state and then they start shilling to jewtubers (and /v/ shills, apparently) so that people come back. Pure coincidence that this game has been out for 2 years but hardly ever got any threads past it's first few months, is now getting multiple threads within the span of a week? and only now that they announced the major and the creator partnership program, there's interest kicking up? Truly, must all be coincidence.

agreed, the art style is utter soulless garbage. anything you unlock as a free progression is bland to the point of being completely uninteresting rewards. the announcers are annoying as shit. they could have given this game more charm and character instead of being the epitome of corporate garbage.

the gameplay is pretty fun though. the movement is good, the weapons are alright.

>>718142028
if you want more serious games then check out squad.

>>718142185
>continued the tradition
continued the swedish gamedev tradition*

oh and not mentioning how they paid the peepeepoopoo alight cya guy to make a video and Dr Disrispects Women to make videos of it? Still didn't break 20k players on steam on the weekend the video released btw.

And now they're putting denuvo in it. A game that already has performance issue. And cheaters up the ass. People harp the artsyle and cosmetics but it's clear a lot of people here didn't play it for prolonged times.

>>718136827 (OP)
It is a fantastic example that being fresh and new and bold means that the vast majority of people aren't actually going to like or understand your game, and will bitch and moan until everything's more sanded off and recognizable instead of actually adapting.

For example, people like this >>718141839 that even care about "competitive viability," complains about 3rd Partying instead of adapting a more proactive defense that can back out to become the 3rd Party themselves, and obviously uses the "Griefing Strat" as an excuse to justify why he totally lost because of shit he totally couldn't control and how the team that made it in didn't actually deserve to win.

>>718142185
dont act like marketing is some kind of conspiracy. all companies advertise their products. yeah, mo1st critical did release a video of the game shilling it that reached over a million views. it remains to be seen if this game gains any traction. probably not. but right now i feel like there is a void in the fps genre. most are unoptimized, unfun messes and there really isnt a go to shooter anymore, it seems like. people desperately want bf6 to succeed and recapture some sort of former glory, i guess. at the end of the day, at least games like the finals and apex legends, are free and for all the time i spend playing apex i didnt spend a single cent.

What makes this better than other FPS free games?
I want a replacement for Call of Duty since i'm bored of that now and used to play the 6vs6 when drunk for like 30 minutes and have fun

>>718142410
3rd partying can be annoying, i get that, but it's less of an issue in games that have actual proper SBMM. i dont mind getting 3rd party-d if my team can react to it and adapt our strategy. it's more of an issue if the third party is way better than you and just curb stomps your whole team. most shooters do fail in their SBMM though and it's the reason why i stopped playing apex

>>718142410
There is no strat that allows you to repel 6 dudes that are all trying to shoot YOU. While the other cashout gets a timeout and a free cash. You can't "adapt" to being utterly outnumbered, especially if the team is better than you. And even when it isn't, it's fucking frustrating finishing the fight, with low health and gadgets on CD and getting swarmed by the team you previously decked already back and at them, ready to fuck your shit up.

Besides, you cry that nobody should care about competitive viability, when the game is activley pushing a competitive angle and failing at it.

If griefing wasn't bad, why did the last patch introduce cashbox removal when overtime hits? Surely doubling the last and letting the sandbags steal it wasn't a prominent strategy at all, right?

>wake up
>thank you for reporting
The people that claim there are no cheaters must be high or something

>>718136827 (OP)
Gave it a chance during beta and first season.
Just overran by cheaters, ugly visual designs, bad legacy from crippling Battlefield V with 'If you do not like it, do not buy it' as with disabled women screeching on the front lines.
The game is purely made to sell the skins, barebones systems and mods to flood its storefront with lame costumes.

>There is no strat that allows you to repel 6 dudes that are all trying to shoot YOU
Here's a protip: it's a team game, don't fight 6v1s
>when the game is actively pushing a comp angle and failing at it
Indeed, it's bullshit that you whiners are making them waste time on it
>why did the last patch introduce cashbox removal
Because you people are BITCHES and that won't stop WHINING ABOUT IT, like EVERY OTHER THING THAT'S FINE THAT YOU'VE GOTTEN THEM TO REMOVE FOR THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF

>Here's a protip: it's a team game, don't fight 6v1s
Holy shit, you're a shitter AND a retard. Keep playing quick trash and don't bother the rest of us.

What's with the transsexual color scheme?
