The demo for this is now out, still downloading so can't give any impressions yet.
edit: Played it now for an hour. I only got to play on 1 map, i'm not sure if there are more I couldn't find anyway to like pick a map and never got a different one randomly from quick play. Visually it's not bad, what you see in the trailers is what you get. Never had any kind of stutters during play, had some lag though because I was matched into asian servers probably in singapore.
The map in the demo feels too small for the team sizes, it's a constant blender and there's no real strategy going on except trying to nail people in the back who are engaged with someone else until you power up your ult, witch lets you pick between 4 hero things to turn into and are pretty tough. If there are no other game modes except the cap and hold thing in the demo it's not going to have the appeal and longevity of chivalry or mordhau. I think it might actually be better if they went with a smaller player count like maybe 6v6 or something so classes and skill use could be more strategic.
Anyway off to try battlebit.
