A lot of fun, especially when playing with a group of friends who know what they're doing. Idk though, I had 2-3 really fun sessions and then never felt any urge to jump back in. I know the gunplay, movement and things like calling in stratagems feel great. I know it looks amazing, and I know the live service aspects are being used in very clever, genuinely new ways. The structure of the game just never really made me want to play more. Maybe I missed something but each mission just turned into 'run around, kill bugs/do objectives, pick up samples', ad infinitum. I think I'm just not wired for live services anymore because the idea of doing that same gameplay loop with no sense of progression beyond new weapons and cosmetics for hundreds of hours just did not appeal. Glad I jumped in at launch because I never do that with big games anymore but I will be selling my copy.
