Founds a few reviews which I'm going to watch through but 90% sure I'm going to jump on this when it gets on Steam.

If it's pants (doesn't look it atm) I can always refund - looking forward to it.

To Be fair, Reviewing a game that isn't yet released should be taken very lightly. The game isn't perfect and does have issues but I can tell you 100% for a game in such early stage its got more going for it than anyother Battle game of this type, even Dayz can fall under this genre.

1. Decent amount vehicles, all have decent driving mec
2. Loads weapons all again feel different in there own right
3. Map is big enough with loads different areas
4. Player movement feels good, the player feels grounded I.E not floaty like H1Z1
5. Audio guns sound great, footsteps are loud enough
 
FFS...just when i'd decided not to get another early access title.

To be fair though, played his BR mode on both Arma 3 and H1Z1 so it's guaranteed I will like this.
 
Looking forward to goving this a go, watched quite a lot on twitch of it over the various beta's.
Deffo looks to be improving each time which looks promising.
Wonder what price it will come on steam for? Sold a load of h1z1 skins and some cs skins so got plenty of steam credit for this. If its more than £30 i think ill hold out though. £20 is more acceptable as a early access price. H1Z1 will deffo be dying once this is out.
 
H1Z1 is just getting ruined with each update, as is Arma 3 Battle Royal.

It's out now on early access for $29 (around £25 ish) which, for a game that I guarantee is going to be heavily modable (given this was one of Player Unknown's criteria for undertaking this project) - there are going to be some very interesting concepts.

I'd expect this could easily kill off H1 but also be a real run for Arma franchise but could see a DayZ mod resurgence given the engine this is built on (Unreal Engine).
 
Would that affect the Steam 2h refund windw as the purchase wasn't via Steam?

Just incase at release it's hella bad? I don't imagine it would be however.

I'll hold on for a few more weeks I think. Watch some more streams before buying.
 
Ahh bummer, ill just have to wait, no point spending real money on it if i can just use my steam credit. Look forward to hearing back from you guys playing the beta though, specifically about how it runs on your system with specs etc
