Making a 13 year old dead free-to-play game paid is insane

Hot damn, they actually did it. I had a review here before mourning the loss of this game but its actually online and playable. Real testament to the passion and enduring spirit of the fanbase and the team at Atari who brought it back online.

Game was really fun about 10 years ago, and I'm glad it's back to being playable, but there are only about 100 people who play this now and they're all really good and will mock you for being worse than them.

Updated to the point where all of my DLC is inaccessible and has been for months. This is a joke. Constant chatter about fixing it, yet nothing has left the beta branch. They're increasing costs once this is all (finally) fixed according to the developers themselves. Stay away from this dead game.

I used to play this game a lot on xbox 360 but every time I've tried playing it again on pc I get the sweatiest most b!tchless matches from whats left of the playerbase, I get told to get good even tho im eating the swiggins and clunk doing 900 nuke damage build. Dying is so punishing that if you get caught 2 deaths almost give them level 2. The matches are just so fast and punishing that its so hard to actually learn and get better, I even got told "sorry hun im speedrunning" in one of these one sided matches. Every match just boils down to someone getting fed and carrying either team, I want to love this game again but i honestly cant recommend playing it when every match is gonna be a cringe sweat fest with the toxic remainder of the playerbase. Maybe custom matches with friends would be fun but for 20 bucks now i cant say it would be worth it.

If you are finding this because of the relaunch I think it is definitely worth the $20, So long as people start playing again this game is peak.
