Anyone going to give it a go? I've watched a few clips and seen some gameplay, looks decent.

I think I'm more tempted because I hate Advanced Warfare, I'm missing a decent multiplayer game to play at the moment

Thought this was a really interesting take on the game.

I'm not a big lover of these style FPS games, and do find the politicization and normalising of militarisation slightly concerning. Further to that though, it's just a bit dull. Do we really need more games of muscular (usually white) shooting other muscular dudes. Haven't games as a medium come further than this now?

 

I'm not saying stop producing them altogether, but I think these games could be better done and that games have such massive potential that these hackneyed stereotype games are not coming close to fulfilling. Anyway, just my personal preferences no dig at people who are keen on these games.
