World War 3 - large-scale modern combat Tactical Shooter with late 2018 release targeted.

- Start date
I've been watching this one for a while! I miss the modern Battlefield games, but I'm tired of developers segregating my game library with platforms like Origin etc. The fact this is on Steam is a huge plus for me. The PUBG Discord won't see me for dust! 
Going by the vids so far, a unique ability to make everything look grey and dull
Real wars were colourful and vibrant were they?
I dunno, it all looks a bit, well, basic? Uninspired? A well trodden path many games have gone down and appeared to have done it better? I haven't played it, but I think we need to see a bit more. As said a grey dull and rainy Brandenburg gate doesn't exactly show it in the best light.

Game needs more work.

Really? I think it looks pretty good.
It's actually quite pretty inside the buildings on that map. Agreed, it does look a tad drab on the outside but that is what they are after I read. 'Gritty realism' is a phrase used.
If you like BF3/4 and like/ok with playing hardcore you will like this. I did. For 20 quid I'm definitely up for it.

I didnt get one but a friend gave me his
so looks like I get to give it a go.
Didn't get in at all throughout alpha test. Looks like I'll get it on EA

If you can get into the BETA that would be great, you could test it yourself. Early access starts soon also and its not going to be priced that bad either £25 I think I read.

Quite like the look of it. I've signed up, so lets see what happens.
Your allowed to talk about it now, just not post screenshots or video.
I intially had allot of issues getting it to run, it uses easy anti cheat. I have a asus motherboard with Aura to control my RGB lighting. EAC doesnt like this, so I have to end the process before I try and open the game. Once I got the game open it would then crash when I tried to join a game. That was an issue with AMD GPU drivers. Changing the video settings to low allows me to play it.
I quite like the gun play, weapon mechanics & movement, it seems closer to arma than battlefield.
The weapon customisation is amazing, although a little complicated.
I had the video settings on low but it does look quite nice, although the map I played did feel a little land of the giants.
It has some teething issues but I think with some work it has allot of potential.

My beta experience was a horrible lag fest, a feeling that the world was pretty barren and the gameplay pretty generic. Light years from bf4 at the moment. I don't think my 1070 SLI setup helped much, will give it another shot now I've ditched them.
