    Fun but very clunky

    I think this game is extremely fun however the movement on console is very clunky and glitchy. The movement alone can quickly ruin any fun you are having. The bad console movement requires you to play slow while players on PC run around and dominate, however the aim assist on console is extremely strong and reminds me of GTA V lock on, though not as bad. Despite    Fun but very clunky

Despite these negatives I will continue to play because of how fun the large scale combat is. I like how the game causes you to become more cautious of windows and foliage because a sniper might have you in their sights.
    Its not for everyone but I would recommend giving it a try.    … Expand

    So I played this on my PC, not PS5, but I couldn't review it on the PC Enlisted page so here I am.

    So first off I played this on a lower end Laptop and besides revving up my fans like my laptop was about to take off, and a few separate stutters, it has run fine and is quite small and good looking for only 12 GB. I'll start with the positives and get to the myriad of negatives after.    So I played this on my PC, not PS5, but I couldn't review it on the PC Enlisted page so here I am.

    So first off I played this on a lower end Laptop and besides revving up my fans like my laptop was about to take off, and a few separate stutters, it has run fine and is quite small and good looking for only 12 GB.

    I'll start with the positives and get to the myriad of negatives after.

    The gun play is quite good, each gun feels nice to use, I mostly play the Germans and the Kar 98 feels glorious. The squad mechanic is ok, and a better implementation then other games, and finally the maps are pretty alright all around.

    Now Negatives time. Honestly I know it is free to play and a beta however they implemented it very weirdly and I am not a fan. So the way you get better weapons and gear is through a system where you spend cards you earn by playing on equipment and soldiers. Among the numerous things wrong one of the first upgrades I got was a sidearm for my soldiers because you have to unlock that. However after trying to equip a pistol it said I needed to purchase one from Logistics. "Fine" I thought... you cannot straight up purchase a pistol, it is a random drop you get from bronze arm cards, which I only got two or three of. Also they need to separate vehicles and weapons, it clutters the whole screen up. The first big misstep is that none of this is explained at all.

    Speaking of things not explained, soldiers leveling up, and also squads leveling up, two separate things. Soldiers level up and get extra perks, however the perks either barely impact gameplay or... no they never really impacted gameplay. I'm sure if you minmaxed and got a ton of perks it'll be a widely different story but in its current form its very meh. Squads leveling up allows you to be able to upgrade your weapon, in that particular squad, get more soldiers in your squad, or get better things for your soldiers. This... is fine... I guess. The existence of some exclusive perks where you can only get one out of three is strange and scares new players who don't know what they're doing away from it.

    Maps, oh maps, and I'll throw game modes in here as well. Maps are generally fine however in my few hours of playing I think I lost as defense a couple times, the whole invasion of Normandy is heavily skewed to defenders, for good reason, however once your just bum rushing up a hill it just turns the experience sour.

    So gun battles are fine, like I said earlier guns feel nice, and relatively well balanced. You will be getting one shotted occasionally and only a few times did I get frustrated because of it, mostly in the Lone Wolf mode. Yes, the AI needs some work... a lot of work, occasionally I would not even realize my squad was dead till I died and got thrown to the respawn screen.

    So seeing as most of these reviews don't mention it I will, this game is like... similar to... I won't say ripping off... Heroes and Generals, the game is Heroes and Generals. PC exclusive free WW2 shooter where you have squads and different soldiers and can upgrade them etc. etc. etc. See any similarities. They're similar but right now H&G has it beat on most things, bar weapons and graphics.

    Honestly I want this game to succeed, but in its current state its not totally worth it. Now when bombs are going off, gunfire is peppering around your ankles, and your surrounded by all out warfare... it is a sight to behold and experience.

    I've barely really scratched the surface on this game to be honest. So many weird design choices and missteps.    … Expand
