Okay I just finished playing over an hour, I have to fully disagree with it being closer to BF. If you like Squad you’ll like this, but there’s no dedicated kit like BF or Squad. You have inventory management like Arma, and you have to pack your magazines. You can specialize however you want to your play style. The maps are absolutely massive. The vehicles have a lot of weight to them and overall the pacing is close to Squad and Arma. The first match from start to finish took about an hour and 40 minutes.

Obviously a lot of these games have some of that BF spirit but this game is much slower in pacing.

Edit: also I’m playing this on Arch, and the game ran flawlessly, with proton 11.

That’s marketing making you see that, but yeah Squad did spawn of BF, but it’s not as fast paced as battlefield. I watched an hour stream yesterday, it’s got the really slow bits of Squad in its DNA.

I got an invite for the closed beta that starts today. I’ll report back on which it’s closer to.

I would say it’s closer to Squad with a managed economy system on top of it. BF has no economy management. Or FoB building, or logistics trucks running resources to build FoBs.

Currently on Arch with hyprland, but I’m considering switching to Bazzite or SteamOS. My understanding is SteamOS doesn’t support multiple monitor setups well. So that’s what gives me pause on trying that.

But end of the day if what you have is working, there’s not much reason to switch to one unless you’re curious to poke around.

Tree World? We go hard.

It absolutely is.
