Now that I had the chance to try it, I was quite disappointed with this, given how it was hyped as a "PUBG killer", the shooting and movement don't feel as solid. Everything seems floatier and weightless?
But maybe it's just a first impression.
IDK, feels smoother and more responsive than pubg to me.
The first person animations are really bad, but playing the game third person is great.
Actually prefer these games in third person but thats just me.
Been playing a ton of first person in solo/duo/squads, managed to get to 62 on the FPP solo leaderboards so far.
All my buddies are in agreement that we find this so much more fun than PUBG, I played 10 or so hours a few months ago with a proxy as well and the game feels so much better even since then.
Still a lot of room for minor improvements but as far as QoL and general satisfaction the game has it nailed, no real issues and the hit reg seems spot on overall. I love the kit mechanics as well.
So today I learned, you can roadkill people off the helicopter ladder.
I don't know if Aculite is the best but he's certainly creative and has luck on his side.

Wiped 3 of this squad solo and they were crying down mics calling me a cheater, their 4th guy was hellbent on killing me so this was the icing on the cake :v

Hey guys! for those of you into ROE, please find below your new map trailer (downloading the update as I type this). Also a new season will be starting.

Did they remove the choice of starting packs for the new map?
No, they changed them to BMX, Glider and Grapple Hook.
Looks like it's some kind of iteration of the old alpha map. I wondered why that was gone, I guess they were reworking it.
That map is only used on the asian build, which doesn't even have the kits setup.
I've been curious to try this, but I don't know about their privacy policy, seems a bit fishy to me.
I'm a little miffed to be honest that they effectively removed all of the season 1 pass cosmetics from the game by changing the kits/switching the old map to a squad only event mode, I mean you can't even use the old glider skins on the new map.
I did see someone say that they intend to bring it back if playercounts go up and only removed the old map as to not split the game into 12 queues when they don't have a playercount to support it but it feels like they should have been a bit more transparent about that considering how much they liked to say 'youll keep everything unlocked forever!!' about the season pass content rather than suddenly saying on wipe day that Dione is gone from the main queues.
New map is pretty fun though, hoping the game manages to pick up a bit more in players as I feel like a lot of people refuse to give it a chance, maybe people are just tired of BR games in general or already have their favourites.
They posted a thing a while back about their use of data (https://steamcommunity.com/games/755790/announcements/detail/1709578069920965749) , and you can read on the site exactly what they collect and do with it (https://www.ringofelysiumonline.com/webprivacy.htm#PI)
Correct me if I'm wrong I mean people are tinfoil hatting over this and sure it might feel intrusive having to allow the game to start as an admin and the details of what they are collecting but honestly most people are also happy to allow 3rd party anticheats driver level access to their system which probably collect similar types of data to this.
They are a massive company and still need to abide to GDPR laws (You get a popup when starting the game asking if you are in the EU), so I dunno if it's just because China people are getting worked up over it.
People tinfoiled the fuck out of it, don't worry.
The only thing you might be bothered about is their AC because it is invasive much like punkbuster, easyanticheat and so on and because of that they needed to update the privacy policy to show what it collects when its running, because of that people threw their shit at the wall because they don't understand it fully.
So if you play anything using PB, BattlEye or EAC, their policy is no different to those games.
