Kino game but people are getting upset because they chose to make an uninformed purchase and thought it was EDF/Evolved/Anthem (which are all wildly different games by the way so you can really tell it's mostly people upset that a random game is not uniquely tailored to their individual tastes)

All in all, very solid Team-based hero-shooter with some good mechanics, maps and solid gameplay.

To be clear what you're getting is a PvP objective based game. This game is played over rounds, and there are a variety of objectives (typically payload and wave clear) with hopefully more to come (Exo culling rounds please). The structure is pretty neat, The first round is essentially a warm-up, where you're clearing waves while racing to one end of the map, whoever get's there first gets solid advantages and head start in the following round, but overall the PvE round slightly inconsequential and is focused on your teams ability to coordinate and wave clear. Round 2 is where both teams play a bit of tug of war via payload and PvP. The structure of the heroes is similar to what you would see in overwatch, however the big exception here is that it's not balanced in the same squishy and slow philosophy as overwatch. What you're getting here is great third person shooting, with well balanced abilities and a low (relatively) time to kill, that actually allows for some great tactics and individual mechanical skill to come through.

It really is unfortunate so many people were either misinformed by someone or not willing to look up and follow any information about a game before getting upset and have chose to start looking to form a brigade against a thing that is really neat for the people who were looking forward to it. You don't have to like every game and that's fine, but c'mon don't kill this thing the rest of us enjoy over it.
