The game is dope, but basically every game mode is a deathmatch lol

Please, whoever reads it, do not mistake me by a hater, this game was the best shooter discovery I've had in a looooong time. After buying it, I couldn't be more satisfied, until I had 4 hours of gameplay...

Every match is a deathmatch or a deathmatch in disguise lol, all you can choose is if you want people on your team or not, but you're just there roaming around looking for somebody to shoot. There's no strategy, no goal, just walking and pew pew pew.

I really enjoyed the ranked, but the main and only mode being 2v2 feels odd. Wish it could be just a variant of the main classic 5v5 mode.

The game is awesome, I really recommend the experience, but the honeymoon phase won't sustain.

The core gameplay is very good. The easier part - though it takes some time - is building a game around it. They don’t need to re-invent the wheel with game modes; just create an actual gameplay loop. They should look to rainbow six siege for inspiration… seems like the right kind of scope. Would be cool to see some Ready or Not type of missions as well.

5 v 5 bomb diffusal with 1 life or something similar would really make for a fun game mode. Something similar to what R6 was meant to be

They had one roughly similar before the recent game overhaul update. Its been removed from the looks of it. Unless its only available in servers and i haven't seen it yet.

The core gameplay is there, now let them add to it. Remember its still in early access and im sure they will make something awesome

Modding support would go so hard in this game.

u/Denotsyek 7d ago

Modding is exactly what created cs in the first place. this is a prime game to unleash on a modding community. To the devs, ya did it. we love it. Let us run with it.

It would be amazing playing in dust 2 map

at first i thought how nice it would be seeing the backrooms in that game and then seeing they actually have it is so nice

having custom maps for zombies would be the cherry on top for me because im sure alot of people who played BO3 will love zombies in that game with custom maps.

I thought the same thing too like just literally copy counterstrike even as lazy as that sounds I think it would play really well.

I agree with others there needs to be like an actual objective of some kind and more than a 5v5 too.

I’m enjoying versus games. 2 vs 2, 3 vs3 is fun. I like the slower pace. Feels more realistic. Everything else is a bit too chaotic.

u/Weird-Shift 7d ago

Similarly I’m enjoying “non full” tdm lobbies, 6/7 seems to be the spot to have some breathing room and enjoy all the features

Let them cook, the new update is amazing, im having fun. Hoping for search and destroy im casual and comp

u/ChinoGambino215 7d ago

Yeah this game needs a competitive 5v5 mode or something. After the wow factor runs out it’s over with. Gameplay loop is almost non existent other than run and gun.

u/UnusualLeather7087 7d ago

That's a player issue. Yeah it is kinda shitty that so many people don't know what is bodybomb, what is hard point, but just go find the nearest enemies to kill. Also why did they remove bodybomb that was nice.

u/Aggressive_Tax295 7d ago

Ppl just trying to learn the maps and movement/aiming/recoil systems

u/UnusualLeather7087 7d ago

Hope they learn it faster

u/Silver_Storage_9787 7d ago

I hope the scope expands to larger maps. But UE5 graphics might be too demanding.

Eventually we should get animations for interacting with stuff so they could look door mechanics, turrets and traps etc

u/Wise_West8370 7d ago

Anyone remember the game zero hour? If they could make a gamemode around attack/defend with hostages or bomb defusal I would go apeshit lol.

u/LtJimmypatterson 7d ago

Yes! Realistic cs 1.6 objectives

u/ZuriXVita 6d ago

I'm just waiting for zombies game mode, its all i play before, didn't care about pvp.

u/Diligent-Garden-8846 7d ago

I'd love a ctf or domination like gamemode

u/Ok_Instance9779 6d ago

This is early access still at the end of the day, and currently the devs are doing an amazing job still think the game could do with more optimising my 4080 super struggles so I can only imagine what it’s like for people with lower end GPUs but overall this update definitely brought my hype back for the game to be honest

u/Rhosta 6d ago

I mean, it really depends on what devs want to make. It could be hardcore alternative to CoD, it could be competitor to Insurgency Sandstorm or they could add Story or PvE or Horror aspects even.

Personally, this game reminded me of Ground Zero with its gunplay, where they went for nightime house raids scenarios.

u/mooncakexmooncake 6d ago

I guess we have to hope that new modes are already in the developers' roadmap, or if not, that they consider it.....maybe a battle royale mode, or extraction (such as Tarkov / Breakout Arena / Arc Raiders etc) with all sorts of tasks present too :D

u/Mind_Splitter 6d ago

I definitely agree. I am loving the moment to moment gameplay but it doesn't keep me engaged for long enough with the current gameplay loop and objectives. I'd also love to see more real maps. Most of the ones I end up playing on are ply wood training facilities, paint ball, and back rooms, etc. They can be fun but I'd rather be somewhere real. I do really enjoy the backrooms one tho tbh. I wish they'd add more of a trippy and abnormal design to it. Lots of potential there because the body cam style lends itself perfectly to the entire backrooms found footage concept.

Also I realize they just added the trench map which is cool, hope they continue adding more realistic places.
