One of the best turn-based RPG's with loads of strategy that I've had the pleasure of playing with a fantastic story with a spider's web of paths to go down. Perfect for couch co-op, perfect for 4p, perfect for solo-dolo, plenty of re-playability. Tons of mods to enhance the experience beyond it's vanilla format, and a AAA price that doesn't try to gouge it's customer base for more money. This game deserved game of the year when it got it because it absolutely blew me away with how feature rich the game was, and even after that they continued to inject even more content beyond the original scope. These Devs have garnered god-tier status, and I can't wait for their next project to unfold. I just wish we got more, as there was some cut content for the sake of development time. The only thing from what I've read is it sounds like Wizards of the Coast soiled the diamond they uncovered, so the next games/expansions in this series may not be near to the perfection that this game was, so keep an eye on Larian- not Baldur's Gate 4.

A simple Battle Royale / Hunger Games clone in a nutshell, and it's done perfectly.

Highly recommend. And bring a friend!

TIPS for new players: Put on the Surprise Me! airdrop and focus on that for the first several games as you learn the ropes and learn the map. You likely won't win many games for a while, but once the mechanics click, you'll have a blast destroying people.

Pro's:
-No Pay2Win
-Everyone starts Evenly (aside from perk choices/airdrop choice)
-All perks unlocked from start (airdrops are unlocked through playthrough, though)
-The map is a great size for the 16 players
-Random spawns for players and loot keep things interesting while map awareness leads you to higher chance of good loot
-Simple crafting system that is somewhat complex but easy to get a hold of with no menu's to fiddle around with
-If you are unfortuneate, you can use said crafting system to somewhat catch you up to fight more fortuneate players
-Melee combat is simple but interesting, and you can actually win against someone with a better weapon than you if you're skilled at it
-Guns are few and far inbetween, typically 0-2 guns per round, making the rest of the combat fun
-Character outfit customization is via random rewards after each match, whether win or lose.
-Said outfit rewards can be sold on the Steam Marketplace, especially rare ones. Have so far made back $7.00 by selling outfits I don't want

Neutral:
-Not complete FFA, there is no 'Alliances', but that would probably make the game imbalanced anyways (fixable after voice added)
-No Voice Chat (after playing for a bit, I'm not sure if it needs one or not anymore, since teaming up would become very unfair to others.)
-Would like more random events in a match
-Kinda want winning a round to give you something special, like a choice between 3 rewards or a new airdrop package
-I think the Team mode should have the team fight it out at the end of the round until one member survives, last man standing after all. Would be fun.
-Spectator mode could become something very interesting, like the spectators being able to call in airdrops/events with the FUNC they died with, while regenerating it over time or something
-With above, the ability to join in and spectate matches already started and doing the same thing.

Con's: (Most of this is already in the RoadMap)
-1 map, really would like more variety (Confirmed more at later date, for free)
-There isn't a custom lobby mode, for if you wanted to make a battle royale with just friends
-Sometimes during loading of matches it can sort of freeze for a bit (could use more optimizations for the loading stuff, my SSD handles it fine but my friend can crash)
-Guns need a slight damage nerf, as once you get one you are almost guarenteed a kill

Fantastic game. Just fantastic. Loads of fun wrapped in this very simple formulae.

This game gives me huge nostalgia waaaay back when I used to play Medal of Honor: Allied Assault on custom Builder Servers that allow you to build before you play.

This game has the combat feel more of arena shooters due to it's fast movement and longer time to kill. I love it for it. It's like minecraft Only in the sense that there's voxel blocks to build with. You still need to know how to shoot like other FPS's to do well.

There's immense strategy you can pull of in this game, from defending to attacking to organizing your team in just the right fashion. Similar to Moba's, it's 5v5 and your team is key to winning.

The beta itself has very few bugs and is basically almost ready to release. Balance is pretty damn good as well, which will likely be an ever-evolving process.

9/10 - Buy it.
