I love the people who have played a couple of matches and declare the game is a mess that can't be saved and bemoan the all of community servers. I respect the guy on he last page who just said "this is not for me" and, rather then list off a buckhorn of stuff on one could know wih a game this new.
Just got my beta code and I'll give it a shot this weekend. The game is just terrible. I was bored after 2 Matches. The matches are over too fast and the maps are way way too smal. 6v6 is just a joke. And the worst thing in the Game is the Cannon-Fodder AI. The have absoluty no purpose other than make some console-retards feel good for killing them. They could just remove the AI and replace it with humans and make it like 12v12 or 16v16 and the game would be much better with bigger maps. User was banned for this post. :/ Oh, just to make this clear, we banned this person because he was a PBU (Previously banned user), his post was okay otherwise. Except for the retards part which is a little stupid. Move on!
Even though I didn't think the post itself was quite ban worthy when I looked at it, I still couldn't help but feel ok about it, too many posts in my opinion from people who stop thinking at "AI is just added as a feel good about yourself" element when from just the few games I played it very clearly has a big impact on gameplay that swapping them for players would not have.

typical beta testing...

Lucky devils. Even a friend of mine who's only passively interested in the game got a key. ;_;
Ach. I've got plenty of stuff to do anyways.... Will find out by Monday if I'm fortunate enough.
|
First beta I have signed up for and not gotten a key  My luck has turned for the worst... Must consume mass amount of fortune cookies.
Edit: Beta key received Fortune cookies be praised.

This game looks like a slight improvement on CoD + with extra mechs.
Definitely not eSport worthy, way too forgiving - it'll still be a ton of fun to have a blast with friends.
|
I've been having fun but I'm on the edge purchasing it as of right now and i'm not really sure why. I can see the game being repetitive after a while and getting burnt out like in Call of Duty.
It needs that special sauce, it's close to being a great game for me but not quite there.
|
I'm probably gonna get it purely on the basis of satisfying that dudebro shootbang itch. Pretty much everything I've been playing is hardcore/complex but sometimes I need something to relax to. Battlefield 4 was supposed to be that game but it looks like a mess right now, especially with the 10 tickrate servers.

The EA customer support is such a farce that I'm actually elated.
Literally anyone can go to their support help page, make a fake email ticket claiming that they didn't get the correct platform key and then get their account granted access to the beta on the platform of their choice.
No proof, no nothing. Like are they literally just clicking a big "YES" to every email that comes through?
Friend of mine did it for shits and giggles and got through. I just did it and got an email in 2hours apologizing for the "inconvenience" and I could immediately download and start the beta on PC lmao.

Hopefully they solve this problem never. Open beta for all.

Well just got my beta key, frankly my hopes aren't very high, but ill test the shit out of this till Tuesday, i think im just burnt out with shooters. The last shooter that really held my attention was Halo 3, with over 10,000 games played, it's probably safe to say ill never find another shooter like that again. If they just put Halo 3 on Steam, i would still play it, till the day i died, miss the good ol' days.

YESSSSS got my beta key. So excited.
|
Just got my key. Can't wait to try this out, it's been ages since I played a good FPS!
|
I just received my key too. Looks like its pretty much a open beta 
|
Shallow, non-existent TTK, aiming barely required, extremely long wait times between extremely short rounds and garbage AI cluttering the map. The pilot movement stuff is nice but barely comes into play, if someone sees you you're dead anyway so it ends up just being a gimmick.
|
Meh. I'll still hold out for EA to reply to me. Would rather not lie to get into a beta for a game that comes out in a month.
|
The weapons do so much damage. You pretty much just spray in someones general direction and they'll die before they can react. Is it the kind of gameplay they're after or is it likely to be changed? I've only played the first cod so I don't know what that the developers preference is.

I dunno, but the pilots (human players) takes a lot more bullets to take down than recent COD/BF titles, the time to kill on most weapons are way slower, maybe you are hitting AI creeps?

No it's players. I've played 5-6 hours now and I have to say I got bored. It lacks the 1v1 dual in-game that I find exciting. The moment you find someone either you or the enemy is dead within a second or two.
