    I had high hopes for this game , but i felt slightly disappointed,the addicting taste is present( but not as big as fortnite),but the map looks dull and not interesting,and the gunplay is not as good as i thought ,and even feels clunky
    The auto royale is in my opinion very fun btw ,it feels a bit fresh,but will be still overshadowed by the normal battle royale.

    Not including the server issues as a lot of games are plagued with this on release, i actually enjoyed this
    What makes this a bit different from fortnite to me is the pace. I think you get to do more in a shorter space of time than in other BR type games.

    As a alternative to Fortnite, this is actually pretty good! I like how fast the matches play out, and the gunplay is pretty satisfying, although I think the ads could use a little fine tuning. The map isn't very interesting either.. but these are things that could all improve as time passes, but for now I think it has translated over to Ps4 pretty well! Runs pretty good on my PS4 slim.

    I remember when my best friend and i installed this and played it only because we could drive around in cars. Good times.

    Being a PS4 player and not being able to play PUBG, this is the closest you can get. It's a fun game and, in a way, adictive but the flow and animation of the game is not great. For a full game, its still act like a BETA version. The guns are OK although most guns have a lot of recoil but a guess that's the point. It's easy to navigate on the main menu and the controllers are easy to learnBeing a PS4 player and not being able to play PUBG, this is the closest you can get.

The guns are OK although most guns have a lot of recoil but a guess that's the point. It's easy to navigate on the main menu and the controllers are easy to learn but hard to master. I will rather have the option for more button layout like a tactical one. The battle pass is cheaper than Fortnite's battle pass but it doesn't makes it better game since, even though both are Free to play games, Fortnite have better mechanism and animation. Overall, it's a fun game to play with friends if you're into Battle Royal, just don't expect to be better than PUBG or Fortnite.… Expand

    Being the first battle royale game may have been enough a few years ago, but in the current market where Fortnite is the biggest thing in the world, it takes greater ambition than “ugly but functional” to stand out. The best thing I can say about H1Z1 is that it’s free, but even so, I still can’t recommend it when its biggest competition is also free and offers a far better version of this same premise.

    H1Z1 doesn't shake up the battle royale formula in any big way, but instead offers a simple, streamlined experience. It differentiates itself from its PC counterpart to its benefit by revamping the core systems at play, giving you just enough to work with in battle without being overwhelmed. But it's still missing diversity in its action that would create lasting appeal.

    Compared to H1Z1 on PC, this port is not only technically worse off, but the generally superficial battle royale is also limited in terms of content, thus influencing tactics and tension on the battlefield.
