![]() right on. from what i've seen, it pays to be aggressive. once you see enemies, you should either be engaging them or flanking pretty much right away if the situation allows it. have fun! |

![]() Wow this is one of the most polished mp games I've played in a while. Everything is just liquid smooth. I guess no surprise given that titanfall 2 ran great. Pushing the source engine with a very large game space and the LOD is not bad at all. Looks pretty good on the whole. Played like 4 matches and actually won one. It only has 60 players (20 squads of 3) and the map seems a tad too big for that player count. In every game it took a bit of time to find baddies at the start, but I mean that's not necessarily a bad thing. 72 or something might be better. Ping feature (aka spot) is quite nice and reduces the reliance on voice chat, actually it's better than voice chat in many respects because it tags items for your buddies, it persists and is easily understood. They have mixed heroes / ultimates into the game and it gives it personality. I'll be playing it more this weekend. Might be the first Battle Royale game I like. |

![]() Titanfall 2 uses a heavily modified version of source and I suspect this is another step in that direction. I guess a bit like CoD uses the quake 3 engine. I don't know for sure though. |

![]() Been plaing this a bit. Suck at it, but it's easily the best of the battle royal games so far. Its almost like planet side, but every squad is an enemy team.

![]() You don't suck worse than me, but it is fun. PUBG was hard for me because the TTK was so low that I literally couldn't get a shot off. At least in this I can get a few kills on occasion and survive for a bit. |

![]() I'm not good at this game but I like it more than any other battle royale game by a long margin. Only problem for me is that I'm getting a number of random crashes, like 1 out of every 4 games crashes with no error. Apparently it's a fairly common problem. |

![]() It's an amazing game. The movement, though with fewer tricks than that in Titanfall 2, is very well implemented. The combat is good, with the limited magazine size the only negative I can think of. Best thing about it is that it allows you to play a team game, without much coordination or voice communication. I have very little interest in multiplayer games, and almost none in team based shooters, but this game is unlike any other team based shooter I can think of. First of all, you can turn off voice completely. One of the options allow you to convert incoming voice to text. There's an in-built and in-character ping system, where you can ping enemies, specific items, loot, locations etc. by simple one hotkey. The team characters often chatter on their own, based on the state of the game. When first dropping into the combat zone, there is one team leader who can identify a drop location and other team members can agree or disagree, and once again all of that is done by that same ping hotkey. Then there are lot of other gameplay innovations, that at least I haven't seen anywhere else. For example you can tell from far that an item is worth picking up. Ammo is color coded with the type of gun you are carrying. Weapon attachments and armor are automatically replaced, once you get objectively better versions, that is going from let's say level 1 to level 2 helmet. It's just an extremely polished game. This will be a huge success for EA - perhaps their biggest game in years. |

![]() Played one round. We won with 0 deaths. IMHO this is much better than the other two F2P battle royal games. I didn't get my 600 legends tokens though for leveling up twice. It showed them on the round summary screen but it still says 0 in the top right. |

Unless both do extremely well, something gonna give. My thoughts are that Anthem will suffer and Bioware will be closed (eventually). Who knows though. EA just can't do anything 'consistently' right. |

![]() I think people coming away with a negative impression of anthem due to the rough state of the demo is going to hurt it more than a f2p battle royale. |

It would be awesome if Respawn could pull a Bungie and buy itself out of the EA dumpster fire. |

Though admittedly Anthem and Apex are much more different than BF1 and TF2. I guess only time will tell. |

![]() won my first game with 4 kills ![]() while it's fun, idk if I am as huge a fan of it as the popularity suggests. battle royale was never my thang, but i like the smooth gunplay. |
