    I think not going free to play is a mistake. It will cost 20 and still will have macro transactions and battle passes and less players because it’s not free to play. Game like this needs to be free to play.

    Only 30 and 40 year olds with nostalgia are going to play it if it’s buy to play, why would kids pay for this game when they can play CS, Apex Legends, Fortnite, Valorant etc for free

      If they stick the movement people might be interested in it. Buhlitz had some awesome competition frag videos of ascend where they did some wild shit. High-speed flag transfers always look awesome.

      It also has a variety of classes and positions - almost like genuine sports teams do.You can play roles to support your flag carriers or stick around by your flag and defend, so even newer players can feel useful.

        Buhlitz totally still owes me a Razor Naga. 🤣

        I used to play with him every day in the deadstop mumble server! It’s hard keeping up with the best players, but probably the most fun I’ve ever had in my life!

            I was techno! Usually played offense because that’s the easiest.

                I remember we had a crazy Texas kind of guy who usually played juggernaut. I couldn’t bother to juggernaut because I didn’t wanna memorize lineups. I also did LO, but usually technician, assassin, and one of the other medium classes I think. Chain gun was technically the fastest ttk, and the technician had the best one weirdly.
