First, movement felt horrendously slow. That might have been because of the FOV limit, I usually play around 110 and I think the slider capped at 100z
Sprinting hardly felt like a sprint at all - I could barely tell that I was moving any faster.
The most disappointing part was the gunplay. I was expecting this to have the crisp gunplay of Destiny and Halo, but it just… didn’t. That issue became even more glaring when I hopped into Halo 2 the next day and found the gunplay to be substantially more satisfying than Marathon’s.
Far as extraction shooters are concerned, I can like them just fine. I actually really enjoy ARC Raiders.
This just felt… hollow.
Maybe I didn’t play / see enough though. I only put in 3-5 rounds before getting bored.
It takes like 5-8 hours to really understand all the mechanics. There’s a ton of depth to the sound, level and load outs. The gunplay is a faster version of Halo that is often preceded by near silence as you stalk your opponent. It took my a few days to understand what was going on in the matches. It’s a really sweaty game that asks for a ton up front just to understand the basics. But once you understand everything that’s going on, it’s a great game.
I played the server slam and something felt… off.
