Well, it’s out. I bought it on PC and have played a bit there, and I have played a bit on Xbox through Game Pass.
It’s better than the beta but still has substantial bugs. Menus flickering, the commo rose coming in and out of existence, being unable to access your loadouts in some matches, and a persistent connection issue today.
The big thing that makes me sort of sad is the Cross Play stuff. We have a gang at work and I’m the only PC player. I’d be willing to re-buy if it was going to be ”our” game but we’re split between PS5 and Series X. The problem is that the consoles can’t wall off just the PC players - it’s either ”everybody plays together” or “stick to your own platform”.
I’m definitely not a pro player, but I can say that when I switched to console about 8/10 people who killed me were PC players and I doubt that 80% of the total player pool are PC right now. I wish we could set it to “console only” but ah well.
As far as the actual game, it has good bones but they need to fix the worst bugs before it’s that decent. It’s definitely Battlefield in a lot of ways. I appreciate being able to hack the damn chaff off a helicopter for 10 seconds :)
