I just used a trial of the avast vpn. Set to Mexico and it was $39.99 / 44.99 so £25 / 30 in my money.
Assuming it will go up when the games live, thursday or friday, depending where you live. Can't find it either.
I just wasted $10. Fuck.

Even after I said I was going to down grade my deluxe edition I ended up keeping it. Wow those emotes are shit.
Well I will be getting the season pass and missing two emotes would drive me fucking crazy! Damn you OCD

Neither? It's more like Battlefield without roles and no reason to use a scope, so arcadey.

The correct answer is Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare.
Thanks. I play very few FPS but like subject matter.
It's arcade in it's own way, but I would say closer to Halo as the time to kill is probably similar. CoD is pretty twitchy, I'm not sure realistic is the best way to describe CoD.

Would rather have no penis than have to show his to a medical professional
What makes COD 'realistic for you?
Battlefront is certainly not a Battlefield game, while I always found Battlefield to be the more 'realistic' shooter, Battlefront absolutely is more 'arcade-y'
Why did I buy the Deluxe Edition? Why did I buy the Deluxe Edition? Why did I buy the Deluxe Edition?

Won't be able to play until after 10 am Eastern tomorrow. My local BestBuy doesn't do midnight releases. But saving that money and getting $10 back with GCU is worth it.

EA is going to be happy with their 10 extra dollars =)
That has classes that play dramatically different from eachother.

Lol, I don't know...in halo, you can get swords and hammers and jump about 40 feet in the air plus the weapons aren't realistic. COD is based in a realistic setting that feels more grounded (physics, weaponry, etc.). I haven't played a COD since MW, so maybe it's gotten less realistic since then, but the old WW2 ones and MW sure felt less arcadey than Halo.

I feel like I am going to spend 90% of my time in Walker Assault/Supremacy and the rest in Fighter Squadron. Will probably not even touch the other modes again.
Walker Assault, Supremacy and Heroes VS Villains are my 3 main modes, and preferred in that order.

I just watched that video. This is just so close to it, hilarious!
Agreed, but to answer the question as asked I'd say it's more like Halo!
Nice emotes, Elzar.

Do not miss out on Heroes Vs Villains folks.
A very competitive and sublime game mode folks.
@Dr Prob, thanks, my love!

Okay anyone want to squad up on PC....??
Emperor is truly OP once you learn how to use the chain lightning. It's soo satisfying taking down 3-4 troopers in one chain lightning attack then darting off.
That's one of my favorites.
And not to charge headlong into the opposing team.

Just found a spot selling the game early in NYC and picked up a few copies. I sent out a text to my few remaining gamer friends, and fortunately, 2 out of 3 bit. The other is waiting on our verdict, but I'm glad there was interest. My decision to purchase depended completely on them.

He asked what it plays like more. In terms of gameplay--fun, arcadey, shallow (PvZ might have more depth, actually), third person, uses a three-card ability system, simple shooting model--it's very similar to PvZ.
Why did I buy the Deluxe Edition? Why did I buy the Deluxe Edition? Why did I buy the Deluxe Edition?

I got the deluxe edition and the season pass already.... looks like I will get my moneys worth just by the victory seizure/jizz emote alone. lol

This will probably be one of the more if not most accessible online FPS you can get other than maybe Garden Warfare. It is geared toward a larger not as hardcore audience.
PvZ? Really? Doesn't really seem similar at all.
Thanks you! I probably should have phrased my question like this. I am not bad at FPS but I want a game where I can chill and not think about weapons loads, classes, etc. I want a more accessible experience. Thanks again.
I bought the game based on the fact that I played like 20 matches in the beta and felt like I wanted to play more, see more and reach higher levels.
I'm feeling a little apprehensive based on some of the negativity that came about from the early access, but reasonably confident that I'll have fun due to the fact that I had fun in the beta.
