It's pretty fun. It's like Battlefield without all the stuff that makes it bad. No frills, just guns, attachments, vehicles, destructibility and character customization.

I recommend it.

If I was going to play a Battlefield style game, I'd definitely give it a shot, and I do understand that they do need to have company servers for this game, but regardless... I just really do not like live services, no matter how necessary or good they are. MMOs I usually accept in this regard, but even then, I have some standards there too.

What makes Battlefield bad?
My only experience with the series was bad company 2, adored it.
Microtransations, season passes, silly skins and cosmetics. BF:BC2 was one of the last good BF games, and BattleBit's destruction is actually based off of the BC2 system. Break the walls, the building falls.

Update: The game is boring now because of "the meta". There's only one way to play the game that clearly outshines all others. Medic + SMG. When you run this combination, you run faster, recoil is negligible, and you can heal yourself infinitely. That's the only way to spend more time alive than you are dead in this game.

You thought you could hunker down with an LMG and empty your 100-round drum-mag at those runners-and-gunners? Nope! First off, if you have an LMG, you'll be moving slower than they are, so by the time you get set up in a spot, the frontline will have moved and your position won't be good anymore. Secondly, they'll just click on your head and kill you because they have no recoil, while you have to deal with slow movement, ADS, worse accuracy, and higher recoil. Also the bipod in the game is broken.

Wanna just fire in their direction and keep them suppressed? Suppression does not exist in this game! They'll just calmly line up a shot while bullets land inches away from them, due to the poor accuracy of LMGs

I'm continuing to provide suggestions and feedback, and hopefully the game will turn itself around and make all the classes and playstyles viable.

Welcome to a vast majority of FPS online gaming, there are some games where there is always something that ends up being inherently superior to everything else and it becomes the meta, everyone uses it because no one wants lose and conversely everyone losing it adopts it so they don't fall behind and if you use anything else you are considered a dumbass. Usually what happens is that the weapons, class, perks etc. etc. gets nerfed either lightly or all the way to the ground in an attempt to rebalance it, but in most cases people find something else to exploit and the cycle continues. Balancing can be pretty hard when your players just try to exploit everything they can to win.

I think a simple change would be to simply nerf self-heals. The Medic class should be a support role, not a survival/roamer role.
