Xbox EU - Battleground first impression post CWC

Beardimus · November 2017

As per title, only had one decent night in BG, but found quite a few new GT's in the queue (happy to eat my previous words if this does save pop, but lets see) notable lower CP players absent (most I know very unhappy about the change and have gone to non-CP Cyro instead.)

Moreso the playstyle was notably different. All 3 teams seemed to zerg together and have way longer drawn out fights much like Cyro.

BG's felt like they lost their USP. I normally hit Vivec in Cyro but it left me feeling the Perm switch to a non-CP campaign might be the best idea.

As I say, early feedback and will monitor.

Ok ill add that the extra animation for picking up the relic is terrible. Really feels clunky and has lead to a few stalemate defence games already.

Pop does feel better that or queue bugginess is fixed.

Had a few full on BG sessions now and have to say the game play has changes for the worst. Battles lastly the full 15 minutes now, everyone served up, no finesse or speed.

It's a mega disappointing change have to say.
