after a week playing it I can say with confidence that while very fun, this game needs a lot of fine tuning before its the CoD killer ubisoft wants it to be.
Overall the game lacks balancing.
Some factions are overpowered,
Some levels expose one of the teams too much so they cant really get any objective progression.
Some skills are completelly useless in comparisson to others that are very overpowered.
I am pretty sure that some players I met were cheating but could not confirm due to the lack of a kill cam.
Progression is too slow and I dont doubt that Ubi will start selling XP boosts or straight up full unlocks soon.
But its not all bad
The faction system and different skills is really fun and can lead to a lot of different playstiles,
Some of the levels are on par if not better than some of the better CoD levels
Appart from the shitty season pass and its lackluster cosmetic rewards, pretty much all progression and unlocks is tied to gameplay, and challenges, so if you want to unlock a new weapon, attachment or character? just play the game and do what the challenge asks of you.
The only exception to this rule is the DeadSec faction which requires you to get 700.00 xp to unlock or buy it for 10$, feels scummy but gets a pass since you can unlock it through gameplay.
I like it, gonna keep playing but I really do hope they pay attention to the playerbase and give it some balancing and quality of life updates soon.
