Very Addicting game but it definitely needs alot of QOL changes to be a solid game to pick up in the future. For starters, the game feels very cluncky right now. The animations are very stiff and the way in which they function is really clunky. The sound design is pretty nice but the weapon sounds drive me nuts. If this game is going to be geared towards realism, I think the weapon sounds are the first thing that needs to be changed. Also, this is kind of nit-picky but as a medic, the first aid bothers me a bit. I think friendly flashlights should illuminate more, it's annoying not having a flashlight as a SAW when your teammate's flashlights are completely useless when going into buildings. Also, I really wish the SAW class had a deployable bipod. In the future, if there isn't weapons customization, I think there should at least be loadout customization. Some of the current classes are just unfun for me since I really don't enjoy the loadout. I think if we are forced to play a specific class you should have a little more customization options for that class. Grenade explosions are a little underwhelming. I know its an urban environment but the explosions should be larger, the main issue is the fact that the shrapnel doesn't normally travel far because of the terrain and then as stated in the loading screen, it kicks up alot of dust that makes it hard to see, which I think was portrayed pretty well. Lastly another thing that bothers me is that the U.S. AI is non-existent. In real life, if you were in this kind of situation there would at least be a light armored platoon with the LAVs'. There should be at least a couple troops on the ground providing support. All around it's a very solid game but it's very bare-bones now, I'm not really liking what the roadmap is looking like but if it gets some more love, support and QOL changes I think it could turn into a great game.

Where do I even start with this game? It has to be the worst on release battlefield game so far. I literally discover a new bug each time I play a new game. Ranging from sniper scopes being stuck at half of there respective zoom, to a bug that literally causes an entire game to bug out so neither team can spawn in.

In light of this im going to list the current bugs and issues that are in the game and you can make a determination on whether you want to buy it or not. The one thing I will give it
is that it is the classic battlefield experience, the games where you are able to play the game somewhat normally are very enjoyable but they are far and few between. Without further ado, ill begin listing bugs.

Party system is extremely bugged. Optimization is atrocious. 1 in every 5 games or so, when you die you are unable to respawn and just sit there until the end of the game. Sometimes you glitch under the map, if you die next to a wall you cant be revived (Always)
Sometimes you get a direct x error that crashes your game. Sometimes you cannot select a spawn after dying until the game is over. Sometimes you are unable to switch to your main weapon. Sometimes your character will get stuck crouching, when you die you will not be able to respawn. Sometimes you get kicked from a game without a reason.
When getting out of a vehicle you keep moving at the same speed of the vehicle so a helicopter moving forward when you disembark causes you to fly across the map.
Sometimes you get can't retrieve data and it crashes your game. Sometimes after capturing an objective, you can no longer interactive with any objectives and the game goes on forever (I dub it the forever war).
alt tabbing can crash your game or cause you to have extremely low fps for until you reset your game. Sometimes your bullets don't do any damage whether in a vehicle or not
Sometimes you receive a "persistence" error and are kicked out of a game. Sometimes the ui does not work and you cannot click anything until you restart your game. Bullet Deviation makes the outcome of gunfights random sometimes.Server Rubber banding and lagging every other game. The game is very un-optimized even for high end setups. There's WAY too many vehicle spawns and vehicles are overpowered since it takes too many rockets to take them out. Namely Air vehicles, but good tank players usually get at least double digit kills before they die. Glitch where your weapons don't do damage.

Honestly this is only like 30% of the bugs, like I said I find a new one every time I play a new game.

These are just the ones that came to mind when I was writing this review. For now I won't recommend this but if they hotfix alot of the issues then ill change my recommendation to a positive one.

Game is really well made, and the developers are constantly updating it with new features. Something that they haven't been doing too much is listening to the community, I've been constantly complaining about this GAME BREAKING bug that causes your entire game to turn black at times. Other times all the lights will glow and you know the game will crash within a few floors, and even more frequently are just straight up game crashes. I have a gtx 1060 and an i5 7600k and my game crashes at least once every 5 runs. This wouldn't be particularly that bad if they actually had a reconnect system but no, if you spend 2 hours on a run and then the game bugs out and crashes or it becomes unplaybable due to visual bugs, you just have to completely forfeit all the time and resources you spent on that run. Easily the most frustrating thing about this game, the fix would be simple too, a reconnect button. But after asking on several patch threads im finally making this post. Me and my friends were doing a run and after spending 20m prepping (attuning items and rerolling thousands in the shop and buying drinks) out of 6 runes, 3 of them were completely wasted to in game bugs. Both of my buddies had their games crash and I had the visual bug that made the game unplayable. So frustrating, won't have any respect for this game until something is done about this, and I would recommend buying it atm because you'll waste alot of your time due to technical issues.
