It's almost exactly like EDF 3 & 4 with barely anything new other than the fact It's better optimized and runs better. And i'm not complaining, it has everything you'd expect from an EDF game. One big problem I have with these games is that there are never enough players and it's very difficult to find people to do the mission you need. Many of them are too difficult to do alone. Cross platform play and ability to join game in progress would help very much, but it's an EDF game and we can't have nice things like that. I think i'm skipping EDF 6.
