  How is it pay 2 win? There arent even micro transactions.

    From the No Pay To Win Coalition’s review on Steam:

    “Overall: 2/5*

    Not recommended!

    Likely to become a P2W, due to it being a GaaS game.

    • Bad progression system, rigged against newbies.

    Other issues:

    • Cheaters
    • GaaS

    A low-poly Battlefield copy. ”

    If it isn’t P2W as of right now, it will be that way.

      It seems that Steam group doesn’t know wtf it’s talking about. It’s got no MTX, no plans for MTX, and is not even a GaaS/Live Service game.

        I know you mentioned this game to me in this community in the last couple of days, and now this update came along and surprised us all. Would you mind confirming if a dedicated server can be spun up for local play only, with no internet? And if so, does the game have bots to fill out a private server?

        Does it have an offline single-player or offline anything? If it doesn’t, that’s live service, that’s not a game… it’d instead be a subscription-based shooter movie that you just so happened to be the protagonist of.

      …

      What? Battlebit isn’t even a Games as a Service game. It is just a video game. Or is the existence of free skins from twitch drops enough for that?

      And it is “pay to win” because “it might become pay to win at some point”?

      Buddy… find better influencers. Because whatever “group” that is… is pretty fucking stupid.

      The above poster is likely to become a racist terrorist, given their history of comments getting downvoted.

        That’s because I called out certain ideological and ecclesiastical nonsense on a different account, and here on this new one, I don’t plan on calling it out as much as I used to.

      I suggest you look at someone else for reviews because this review is both inaccurate and somehow also blindingly stupid.

      I’d only play it if the game wasn’t P2W

      it isn’t P2W as of right now

      I have good news and bad news!

      The good news is that the game isn’t P2W, so you can play it now! The bad news is that you might be an idiot. I’m sorry you had to find out this way.

      Seriously, you’re spreading misinformation about a game you know nothing about. Based entirely on some random group’s subjective and baseless opinion on what might happen to this game in the future. It would be difficult to get any more dishonest than that. It’s sad.

        You seem to be projecting what looks to be a defense for a game that’s rigged against newbies. I’ve taken a look into the game, and figured it out for myself from watching some gameplay. Yes, it’s fantastic once you get the hang of it, but there’s EOMM that you have to deal with too, which is tame to other unethical matchmaking methods like MTXBMM.
