I want to play chill shooter and this interests me. Is the game fun? How destructible are the maps? I heard it has a root kit that steals all your info. Is this true or shitposting? Thanks.

It's as true as elden ring having a rootkit
It's a fun game but the progression system could use a little work
>the progression system could use a little work
whats wrong with it? too slow?
just ADHD zoomers mad that they can't unlock everything in a single session
>losing to people who have better unlocks is fun
the best weapons in the game are the default weapons
>millennials are defending unlock systems now
Multiplayer unlock systems should be training wheels, not gated content behind actually hundreds of hours of effort.
>You mean I actually have to play the game?
Eat shit, zoomers
Some guns are locked behind hundreds of hours of gametime and then if you want attachments for them you have to grind that too
So it's like older BF games? Pretty based tbh.
Yep, nothing wrong with the progression
So like battlefield 4 then.
A gun unlocks every 5 levels but since not all classes can use every weapon type there some gaps in the AR category. So, you only have three ARs to use from level 15 to 50. I've hit level 50 at about the 40 hour mark. I'm sure someone could really try to grind it out faster by focusing on rezzing on the frontline and c4ing abandoned enemy vehicles.
there is a large gap at the start before you start regularly unlocking new weapons i feel like level 50 is where you have to get before you start regularly getting new ones
attachments arent hard to get and come pretty quickly once you get rolling especially for guns you like and use a lot
Having to grind attachments separately makes experimenting feel like shit
You unlock a new gun and it doesn't even feel worth trying it out because you need to get 100 kills with it first to even fully deck it out
That's why everyone is using m14, because they already have all the attachments for it since it's the first gun
OP no one talks like that on here you fricking tard.
Why can you people never learn to hide the fact that your a schill?
The shills are in your walls they are using 5g to transmit ads into your brain tear em out tear em out

contrary to what it's fugly Roblox graphic style might lead you to believe, this is not a "chill shooter". It's literally just Squad's milsim autism with more destruction.
Pretty destructible but not to the point where the entire map becomes flattened. Think the only thing that can really cause damage to buildings are vehicles and even then it won't completely topple it down, so it's a good balance.
It's an extremely chill game. I just hop into a 125 v 125 server for half an hour and it's fun to just run around and shoot shit. The proximity chat makes it pretty funny since you have various goobers talking shit or the lone gay occasionally mic spamming something.
I think the anit cheat or mic moderating is a bit sus, but I'd look into it more if it worries you. I personally need to as well if the rumors are true.
Still, for $15 I'm getting my money's worth but it does seem like a FOMO kind of game that'll lose players by next month. So I'd jump in now for some fun before that happens.
The unlock system is kinda ass tbh. Level 20 for a LMG? lmao frick off. Plus the time to kill might be a bit too low.
The graphics are so bad. I really hope they gameplay is top notch to make up for it.
You're not going to fill up a 250 player server if you don't make your game playable on office computers
Honestly the faces make me laugh whenever I have to heal someone. While ugly as frick, it has a bit of charm in very rare cases.
What does that have to do with the art style? It's still using a modern engine.
Where did you say artstyle
Is fun, I have it and reached level 60, dunno if chill is the word though the battles are chaotic shitfests while people talk in proximity chat, is really fun though.
The "rootkit" is faceit anticheat, which is not implemented now theres only EAC
>root kit
Yes, the FACEIT, a kernel level rootkit, its already embedded in the game the devs are also recording and storing voip in third party servers.
> which is not implemented
Wrong, FACEIT is in the game files, just not active.
FACEIT collects everything in your computer, even takes screenshots of your desktop, and its active all the time, as stated by the FACEIT privacy policy.
>This may include screenshots of players’ computer desktops or footage of in-game play.
https://web.archive.org/web/20190710153551/https://corporate.faceit.com/privacy/
A kernel level anticheat is the bare minimum for pc shooters these days, anything else will literally be infested by cheaters, is one or the other, most players dont give a shit about someone logging their porn folder and prefer a game without cheaters
If you opt in to the voip calls, BattleBit privacy policy states that they will record the last 40 seconds every voip call, assign your user name and email to the said voip, and share it with third party companies around the world, they also stated they are never going to delete the voip calls, because they will store indefinitely.

>turkiye
Just for that I'm never buying battleshit.
>chingchong data collection servers cataloging and selling 50 TBs of me playing Freebird all day every day.
But, why would small indie company, with 3 employees would invest time and money on a surveillance for a small multiplayer shooter, its their first game, they don't have a publisher ?
99% chance the devs are selling these voip calls to AI companies, if you sing, or spam music, or there is music in the background, you are going to get banned, temporarily, but still banned, music makes dataset worthless for data brokers, copyrighted content from music companies is a nono for AI companies.
>if you sing, or spam music, or there is music in the background, you are going to get banned
Only if you get reported, I hear fortunate son almost every day and no one is reporting because they are not spamming cursed shit
There really is no other reasonable explanation. Ive never seen such a small team put so much of their resources towards moderation.
or maybe they just know their audience and don't want the bad optics of their game being a "platform for Nazis" or whatever game journo gays would come up with
>we are small team how do we moderate the chat
>outsource it
Thats why you have to accept it separately from the other terms
Did they outsource it? Looks like one of the 3 devs is head of moderation

The privacy policy mentions Okigames but they never use that name for the game not even in Steam, is even a real company?
looks like it used to be a mobile games company
https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/okigames-com
>bruh this company only has 3 employees. Pretty sus.
The game was made by 3 dudes in a garage. Its not some grand conspiracy.
> don't want the bad optics
They unpinned their post about privacy policy on steamafter users started questioning it.

The EULA also has an funny point.
>disparaging, tarnishing, or otherwise harming, in our opinion, the Company and/or the
>record the last 40 seconds every voip call
So if I say Black person, Black person, Black person, followed by 40 seconds of dead air they have no evidence against me?
It's okay, everyone moves too fast even for a BF-esque game. For modern Battlefield games Bad Company 2 was the pinnacle of player movement and momemtum and they really should have tried to emulate that.
Also the friendly pips are super fricking annoying. Be prepare to have about 100 little blue chevrons on your screen at ALL TIMES because they haven't figured out how to properly distinguish the two factions yet.
I hear they steal your money if you say "Black person Black person Black person" so im not buying it. Sorry.
Some /misc/ morons are in an autistic crusade smearing a common trusted commercial anticheat as "rootkit" and standard GDPR complying privacy policies. All of this because they cant spam Black person in voicechat without getting banned
Commercial anti-cheat owned by the Saudi Arabia government.
is there tdm?
No but you can just play the game that way and no one will really care.
>the voip/rootkit schizo has a preplanned posting routine
Holy shit, imagine being THIS obsessed
why does this board have a hateboner for every video game wtf
this board is just full of miserable people wanting to make others feel as miserable as they do
>you are not allowed to criticize my favorite game
Sorry, I did not agree with Battlebit's EULA
Or maybe people are making legitimate points about the shady devs. Honestly I think the game looks really fun and Id like to play it but I just dont trust these dudes.
because when you're constantly angry or outraged at things it means you don't have time to be angry at yourself.
because the internet has kept the majority of the worlds population in a perpetual rage over the fact that somewhere someone is enjoying/likes something that they dont like
when people say Ganker doesn't play games, they are not lying. think about it: anyone typing here is not playing a game and the more likely and longer one is here the less likely one is to play a game. the most active users on this board never play games anymore they just shit on people who want to discuss anything.
Yes. Very destructible. No, it collects the same data thats being collected right now off this website, your phone, and every other thing you do on the internet. Anyone b***hing about "rootkits" is just some turbo autists who thinks they're anonymoos we r legion gays.
