I enjoyed the first one very much, but the second installation is not a top-down shooter anymore.

Does anyone have thoughts on this game?

    The monetization isn’t that bad (yet, they could change it to be very abusive), it has the usual premium currency and items at different, inconvenient totals. Most scummy thing is that the premium shop has timers on everything (gotta cause that fomo), also premium only items which have stats

    Premium currency can be earned through in game, so far the rate seems reasonable, the free battle pass has some and there are some on every map

    Edit: two similar games for reference:

    Darktide : premium currency, odd rates, timer on premium shop, no way to earn premium currency

    PlanetSide 2 (originally made by Sony Online) : premium currency, odd rates, premium can buy any item in the game which normally has a very slow grind, also xp & resource boosts

      Yeah, it did seem that the desciption felt a little exaggerated, so I wasn’t gonna count the game off at all, but I’ve been burned before so I figured I could wait a couple weeks. I really want to pick this up so I almost definitely will within the next month.
