Some of my first impression of this new title. Some improvements to "netcode", but ultimately I don't see anything worth my $60 just yet.

Actually, there's no netcode improvements. It's using the old pre-CTE Battlefield 4 netcode and it's pretty bad.

This game feels like it should have been a DLC package, rather than a 60 dollar game.

yea feels like a 20 buck expansion for sure. As far as the netcode, it seems fine when the players have low pings. Today I got in a game with lots of high ping players and I noticed some familiar issues.

Seems like most people, even on the official forums agree that this isn't worth the 60 dollar entry fee.

I mean, it doesn't feel fresh or 'new', feels exactly like a reskinned Battlefield 4 with a small variation of the game-modes.

Agreed, got bored with it within an hour... Most not playing objective as usual, instead snipers and rockets up on top of building... Te game has serious issues, and so does the player base.

Rather they just fix BF4 or BF Bad Company 3.

Wish to god they'd just release a "true realism" mode for BF4.

No hud. Single shot kills. Realistic load outs. No "balancing". Slow paced game play.

With the graphics and destruction allowed with Frostbite it would be the greatest tactical shooter. Ever.

It'll never happen. I know.

Sigh.

Not sure PR2 will ever see the light of day. was reading the forums over there and looks like new issues with Cryengine subscription have thrown a spanner in the works.

But agree. Project Reality on a modern engine is all I want.

that would be a shame. I think they should create a kickstarter for it. I dont want to see it fail.
