This is just some first impressions and thoughts from the playtests, the game isn't even out yet.

Overall, I really love what this game is going for. It's got very fluid and tight gunplay, some of the best destructible environments we've ever seen, a unique enough aesthetic, and pretty good customization.

Some issues though, the game is HORRIBLY optimized. I have a 4080 graphics card and even I stutter about on epic or even high settings, big issue there. Also there seems to be some balancing issues, with weapons such as the flamethrower and some abilities such as the shield wall being way too powerful.

Regardless of these issues, they will likely be tuned out and we've got a great FPS game on our hands. The experience and prestige from former battlefield devs can really be felt in this game, they've really honed in their craft on gun play and destructible environments. I'm very excited for what's in store for this game.

My thoughts exactly, I have a 3080 and I was getting like 70-90 fps on low settings, w/o raytracing, with DLSS on quality mode at 1440p; which completely turned me off the game, and this is a pretty big deal when I'm used to getting 200+ on every other multiplayer game. Besides the optimization issues, this game could definitely stick around if they truly commit to updating it, if not it'll just be like every other multiplayer game attempt we've seen in the past 5 years where it'll just die out.

@tox upon further inspection, I've learned the game is HEAVILY CPU based and really ignores GPU's, so until they fix this it'll be a widespread problem for everyone that doesn't have a godly CPU

Yeah I've seen some people mention that too, sucks but tbf it's a closed beta so hopefully they improve the performance when the game comes out
