@markschlereth Schlereth does not like the Raiders one bit so if he is saying he smells something stinky with this he is telling the truth. He would love nothing more than to bury the Raiders if they screwed up!
I wonder if anyone else noticed that the sound your character makes when they are downed is morse code SOS. @ARCRaidersGame @ArcRaiderHub
Pretty cool for immersion.
I've now had about 10 hours on Battlefield REDSEC and I feel I can give an appropriate review.
PROS:
-Every gun feels viable, even down to the pistols.
-Loadouts DO NOT feel mandatory. Just a nice cherry on top if you get them.
-Ground loot upgrading system is fantastic. Many times I opted out of going for my Weapon Crate in favor of the ground loot I had built, and won the game with it.
-Missions are great and help fill the "mid game" with meaningful things to do.
-Pacing is quick with little downtime. Matches are just the right length.
-TTK is good how it is. This is a Battle Royale that remembers it's a Battle Royale and not glorified multiplayer. Every decision holds real weight and adds a lot of tension because you know death could be at any corner.
-Class Role system works REALLY well and promotes teamplay. Everyone on your team has defined roles depending on the class they choose and it REALLY effects outcomes of games. Made every game feel different. Big plus.
CONS:
-Audio. I don't think the audio is bad in ALL aspects, but at times it feels very "muddy"? My own footstep volume seems extremely loud. At times it was very confusing to figure out whose footsteps I was hearing. Maybe that's by design to simulate a "real battlefield"? Not a deal breaker I got used to it.
-Terrain clunkiness and inconsistency's with mantling & getting over objects. Sometimes I'd be stuck on the most basic of obstacles. Just needs to be ironed out.
-No proximity chat? Or very confusing proximity chat? I felt like I couldn't find the setting or maybe its just not enabled by default. Again, not a deal breaker, but would add some funny moments if I could yell at people in battle lol.
What did I miss?
OVERALL RATING:
8.5/10
