I think its hot garbage and here’s why i think this. Battle royals are suppose to be fast pace. GO GO GO LOOT LOOT LOOT KILL KILL KILL HEAL HEAL HEAL REPEAT. Thats what I think when I play a good battle royal and wow did not deliver this at all. The base mobility speed and overall damage of attacks is decent ill give them that they did that well. The mob density and overall hp of the mobs is way too much. The fact that my loot I use in the match is all 1 use consumables is super wack. The fact that I cant loot heals or heal multiple times in a row is horrible. Also the amount of healing given compared to the cooldown timer of the heal is trash which imo a timer on a heal shouldn’t exist at all in a battle royale it should be a looted consumable that limits you by how much of it you looted. Also theres no armor or armor plates to fix your armor. And ive yet to find any versatility in the distances of attacks its all super close combat with zero ranged. Like come on wow devs call the call of duty devs and ask them what the fundamentals of a battle royale are. Because the wow devs clearly know nothing about a battle royal except there’s a circle closing in on you. I like that they tried this its cute I guess but come on do better more research on how a actual battle royal works cuz this is not it. I have thousands and thousands of hours in different battle royals from different developers and this is by far the worst 1 yet. To the point where its almost unplayable and if I do even play it ill feel like im being punished for being a completionist / collector and only doing it to collect the stuff while not having fun in the slightest.
Yeah I played about a half a game of this and promptly wondered why the heck I would play this instead of a designated BR video game.
Just absurd.
Like what happens if your fighting some1 get the kill then a third party rolls up while your injured… your just dead. Its so bad and not well thought out mechanically or balance wise at all. They only did 4 things right out of like 100. The initial drop is a alright imitation but could still use work on amount of distance you can gain on he drop. The base movement speed is alright. The damage outputs and the amount of heal you get from a single heal is alright. The rest tho is so bad.
That’s the case for any battle royale.
It’s terrible I tried really hard to be optimistic about it but nah no thanks I’m good going to unsub until they put some real content into the game.
No its not I can take cover and heal to full ideally and typically engage the third party or at least have a chance at that maybe 1/3- 1/2 of a chance ill make it out of a third party push alive. There is zero chance of me killing a third party pusher here. Have you ever played or won a battle royal ever? Ive played a disgusting amount of battle royals and some ive been a dominating force in some even setting records and winning 9/10 raids consistently. There is no balancing here there should be a counter procedure to everything even a third party push.
I hate getting matched with people like that on PUBG, I prefer to take things slow, find the weapons I like, and then only attack when I’m ready.
Im so confused. You keep talking about range as if that is a good thing in battle royales. What is your opinion on the current fortnite sniper rifle??? Considering its impact on the fortnite meta…
I mean thats cool but your win rate will prob be low playing that way. The best loot is off of dead bodies not self found 90% of the time. Then ppl that aggressively push typically win engagements cuz well they get in more of them and have more loot to choose from from the bodies. Just saying camping in a bathroom with a door shut at the center of the collapse after you get your gear is a strategy that you can win with its just not a very good one.
Absolute trash. I prefer my BRs ranged and pew pew (like Fortnite and Apex), not melee smash smash.
I cant comment on fortnite its too childish for me im just not into the building (i know theres non builder mode). I will say tho that 1 shot sniper riffles to the head are why most ppl play battle royals over the normal team death matches. I mean you get a variety of ranges of engagements but you get the most long range sniper battles in battle royals compared to other game modes. Dont get me wrong they typically put out a more mid range to close range map for playing on for those that still want a battle royal that dont like sniper battles but that map being released typically comes later in development.
this BR garbage was probably coded in by either 1-3 developers or AI. It’s a joke IMHO. Why it’s in the game is beyond me! I give it 1 week before people stop queing for it. Dumbest thing ever. Should’ve put like 1 or 2 BGS in the game or something instead of this hot mess. For a multi billion dollar company having the same 4-6 BGS for like 20 yrs is not saying a lot. Hell… I don’t even PVP much if at all
This is exactly why they put that renown track in there. If not for that track I’d be done after a game or two at most. That gamemode has zero appeal to me and feels like you’re just wasting time that you could be spending in wow or some other game or activity. It’s not fun, for me at least.
