Everyone is probably still downloading it.

Most people are probably still downloading the huge rear end file and I don’t think the free component has unlocked yet. It will have a ton of people playing by tonight.

The matches do this weird thing where the lobby is full, then the player count slowly goes down as if people are leaving the match, then it starts after a few minutes. I'm getting into games, it's just taking forever.

To clarify - it's not that there are no players, the lobbies fill up instantly, it just takes forever for the match to start.

Some pregame lobbies appear bugged. I had one that took that long and we quit out and immediately launched into another game very fast.

The game cant even be downloaded for non COD players for another 2 hours.

Just because you don't have it doesn't mean a bazillion other people don't you moron. But to your credit I am an idiot, we're literally beta testing the game right now since they didn;t do a beta.

Most people in the world don't have a fast enough internet connection and most the population is going to be free players so yeah most people don't have it you Bell end. Also yeah most people have jobs and poo poo so even more so, most people don't have it. If you're lucky there is maybe 5% of the total population right now

I've got 6-7 games in so far, most of which I've made it near the end walking out with 5-7 kills. It's a very 'busy' game in a good way.There are 3 types of contracts that I've seen.

Recon: Domination style cap-a-point.
Assassination: You hunt a player who is revealed on your tac map. The player knows you are hunting them. Their teammates get money if the 'hunted' survives via time or killing the hunter??
Scout: You have to run to & collect 3 intel crates. This one seems to be the easiest.

Looting is easy and good. Field Upgrades are physical items you pick up and use like you would a gun.

The game has airspace restrictions similar to normal MP, so while there are a lot of killstreaks endgame there aren't ten airstrikes coming in at the same time.

$4500 to respawn a teammate doesn't seem that hard to get. Respawning sends up a super visible flare so be ready to defend.

Shotguns seem pretty meh outside the early fights.

Gulag is fun as hell and having teammates communicating there is OP as gently caress lol.

Aside from the glacial time to get into another match, it's fun. Post up in the traffic control tower with a sniper rifle and murder people, then run them over in with atv's.

If I tend to hover between disinterest and active dislike toward BR games is War Zone going to change my mind about the format or should I just not bother?

Regular BR may not but the other mode, Plunder, might be of your interest?

Man, the lobby never goes higher than 130 players. What's up with that?
Played the training game, it was fun. Pretty tense, even when playing against bots.
The armor plates take forever to equip though.

EDIT: the ping button being up on the dpad is also pretty weird imo.

They seem to be fixing that. I couldn't start a game all morning now it started working and going into game super fast.

Really liking both modes. Plunder is the ultimate shoot poo poo while you relax mode.

First team to one million.
There's a meter in the bottom left that tells your current stored safe amount and your current carried. Sometimes a red line shows up that shows where first place is it but it doesn't seem to be consistent (might be a bug).

I generally dislike BRs but I am really enjoying warzone so far. I hate going 40 minutes without seeing somebody only to get picked off by somebody I never saw in PUBG but so far the engagements have been frequent in this one. 150 players + reentries keeps it active.

The main feature that I'm not the biggest fan of so far is the weapon drop allowing you grab your custom load outs. It's very cheap (or you can just use another teams) and makes every lootable weapon worthless. There's no reason not to have your kit a quarter of the way into the match.

You start off with two and after that they are pretty common, but sometimes in odd spots. The loot seems separated between "gun" spots and "item" spots..

Game is good, keeps crashing on PC though. Probably one of the easiest BR games in terms of shooting, since all the guns are largely lasers, and I don't normally use sights on weapons anyways. Not that hard to go 1v3 when you get so many grenades and a lot of shotguns.
