Don’t know. I’ll find out around Noon Mountain time. Its my day off but have things around the house to do. Have to mow the lawn and what not before I get gaming. Its been raining here like a week straight. Cool the map is out a day early though.
Yeah cause tomorrow back to work and payday and a bunch of errands after work. Figured I wouldn’t get to play Mercury much tomorrow. Works out for me today then.
Smaller than expected. Might be too crowded with 64 players. Looks nice, colour palette similar to Hainan, very colourful in comparison to current maps. Visibility is a big issue, identifying grey/green soldiers on green/brown sloped fields is a real issue. Another issue at the start is the really small capture area of especially D flag, for allies, since the enemy gets at least two planes and any bomber has an easy time racking up kills there.
For me it’s Empire’s Edge 2.0, i.e. small villages in big low profile hills annoying to play if you are not sniper. So long waiting for this… it’s disappointing.
My first play on Mercury involved me needing 4x as many bullets to kill and dying to everything in one bullet because of high unstable ping players.
There is no way I can get excited for new content while this is my constant experience. Seriously thinking about ditching fibre optic for dial up so that I can have an advantage!
