Remains negative untill they fix the crashing issue (all drivers up to date and epic is recommended settings despite me running on low - still crashes, optimisation issues).
I like the passion with animations and most skins having unique animations with them, like how you get free battlepass skin for throwing knifes that turn them into playing cards with magic trick as an inspect, but considering the "destruction" aspect of the game you'd think the devs would put a lot of effort into optimisation... and they didn't.
Despite being out for only a month the meta is already stale and predictable, heavy heavy medium, medium heave medium, just infinitly healing eachother/protecting eachother with shields and there's 0 counterplay to that, not even trough gadgets, you just have to watch as someone you hardly killed with all of his hp despite having same if not better weapon strength as other classes get revived by a medium casually strolling trough fire because he knows he'll just get shielded afterwards and there's no interupting you defibing someone, as well as shield working team based, meaning team can shoot trough and shoot into it while other teams have to be stopped by it like a winston's shield in overwatch and need to first deplete additional 300 or so hp before they can throw stuff or shoot stuff at team that already fully healed under that dome. I'm happy that they listened to us and nerfed stun gun duration/double barrel damage, as well as being able to oneshot with rpg, but they still have ways to go untill you'll stop going "Well, that's just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥" on most of player interaction in this game, espescially the meta you just have to struggle trough for no reason: People like struggling against powerful opponents, but not against braindead teams just putting 2 full clips of hp defense on themselves and not be penilised by it, as well as if by some miracle they die - there's a ninja medium who'll revive him because there's no stopping that and you'll have to go trough all that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ again, that's opposite of fun.
There is potential, but so far it's just overwatch's tank meta all over again, but you also get kicked out of playing the game for no reason every second game or first if the game decides it needs to be extra ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ this time around, so you have to go trough absolutely stale gameplay to then lose all that progress, go trough re-logging, just to queue into another stale ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that you'll most likely crash on anyway, untill it's like that i wouldn't recommend this game.
