    Hype is real. Hope this is good. Coming out today apparently.

    So far I’ve read:
    Class based BR with 8 classes, no mechs.
    3 person teams, 60 players in each match.
    All consoles and PC.

    When CUtigers and I squaded with Odin we were much improved due to the fact we stayed a tight group throughout. We had issues earlier in the day because we weren’t staying together. Health pools seem big and focused fire helps

    I detest the recoil patterns on most of the weapons. Felt the same way with Titanfall but this seems fun enough to power on until I get the hang of it

    Yeah sure but tigers and I had our best games with you. Earlier with Turt we were always a man down in gunfights and we were getting buried

    I dont know what (probably) smg i was using in the first game but it tore through dudes with basically no recoil.

    I want to say we should probably stop landing in the exact same place, but then we might mot stay together.

    I’d give this a 9.5/10 for a console launch day BR compared to the messes most everything else has been. Absolutely had a blast last night playing it.

    The classes bring an awesome aspect to the game, a bit like overwatch, that will only get better as they expand over the seasons.

    The pinging system is fucking genius. It makes every other BR look silly for not having it.

    Love the jumpmaster system too as it kinda passively makes people group on landing.

    Think there needs to be some tweaking with magazine size and/or time to kill. I kinda like the longer time to kill, but then magazines need to be bigger. Footsteps should be louder as well imo.

    And pretty sure taco and I are going pro. Think we grabbed 4 straight dubs to end the night.

    Also I find it interesting everyone I played with has different favorite guns: wingman, scout, spitfire, carbine, peacekeeper, devotion were all mentioned

    Yes the magazine sizes at least need to be increased.

    I think Respawn will do this quickly. Basically make every gun what they are with a white extended (10-20% larger)

    Idk if this is obvious but Pathfinder zipline can hook an enemy and bring him to you a la roadhog in overwatch. It’s crippling in a team fight.

    We need to get the timing down on when to break from formation in the air. Close enough to help, but far enough to not be stumbling over each other for loot

    It’s a lot slower than road hog. But it is still a nasty move.

    With your eyes.

    Pinging system is all tethered to RB or R1 depending on your system. You can identify an enemy, ping a weapon/item, call dibs on a weapon/item, suggest a location, suggest that someone is nearby, say you're looting, or really anything. It's seamless and smart as to what you are pointing at and what you are trying to convey.

    i need to figure out which button layout i'll be going with and if any custom controls are necessary

    I originally switched to the layout that has crouch/slide as R-stick in and melee on B. I like not moving my thumb to do the slide.

    But then I tried switching to layout that swaps pinging to Up on D-pad and grenades to RB/R1. I liked this a lot as it makes using nades much easier... BUT it makes your ult a very, very odd LB+D-pad Up for some reason.

    3 different bumper jumper style layouts is really nice, but none are perfect. thankfully ps4 allows custom button mapping so i'm sure there's one that works for me with one or two buttons remapped.

    Game is a ton of fun. Love that gun attachments carry over when you exchange.

    Does seem to run a bit choppy at times.

    Got our first win tonight.

    Ninja with circle and r1 swapped is the correct control scheme for ps4 users without scufs

    i'm curious how people have unlocked the 2 locked characters already. (i know they can be bought with real money, but on xbox it says buying the currency is unavailable)

    i really like the bloodhound. lifeline is probably a must, and gibraltar is a really good one as well. ive tried bangalore and pathfinder but didnt find much success with either.

    Either have EA Acces or you gain 600 coin per level. New characters cost 12000.

    I played with a guy who had over 200 kills already. I’m guessing they’re either just buying them or just play a shit ton.
