Oh god, it's just so fucking good. I don't really get excited about games much these days, but I'm all in for this one. Let me explain the game a bit so you know what you may or may not want to get into:
I suck at it, but what an amazing game. I don't think it'll be coming to consoles without a huge overhaul to the tetris style, mouse driven inventory system and the vast array of controls, sub-controls, and tertiary sub-controls all over the keyboard, plus modifier keys like alt and ctrl. It definitely needs a mouse and a keyboard as it currently stands. But if it does manage to cross that bridge, I recommend it whole heartedly.
It's essentially a battle royale from which you can escape via any one of around 6 to 10 exfiltration spots which are dotted around the various available large maps. Few, maybe none are always active, and you might have to march from one end of the map to the other to find a way to escape. And people camp the active ones in order to smack you with a dirty headshot and steal the loot you diligently found in any number of places, from jackets and boxes to safes and locked rooms, stacked into your various slots and slogged across the map with.
There are two distinct schools of play with people in this game, the first, and most vaunted being the chad. Geared up to the eyeballs in hundreds of thousands of dollars, rubles and euros worth of shit, snapping headshots with FLIR scopes across the map and exterminating everything that breathes. See Pestily on Youtube for more info on this species. And then there are the rats. They're the fuckers that crouch walk around, taking the scraps the chads leave behind and are the ones who camp next to that exfil to steal your hard fought shit. General Sam on Youtube is the man to see for this unashamed style of shitbaggery. There's another guy called exfil camper on YT, but I don't want to highlight that horrifying way to play too much.
It's a beautifully made game, both in terms of looks and it has probably the finest sound design of any game I've ever encountered. Really nice positional sound. Hard to describe, but you're in the world.
If none of that multiplayer battle royal shit peaks your interest, there's a single player mod called SPT-AKI and you can turn the bot's brains right down to imbecile if you like.
Oh, also you can get the cheapest version of the game and upgrade your inventory size to the max as you progress, unlocking stuff and so on, but when it wipes, which is frequently enough, you'll be back to sod all, but only on those lower tiers. And there are T H I C C cases which further expand your invent. Get the 'items' version of that if you can.
Alright, cool.
