I've been absent from the whole Battle Royale craze, and after seeing the hype this game was getting after launch, I thought this would be a good opportunity to hop in and give a try. I think there's a lot in this game that I would really like, but I just find it extremely inaccessible for someone who is totally new to the genre.
The tutorial is pretty bare-bones and mostly just teaches you how to control your character and use skills. It doesn't do anything to explain the rules of engagement for an actual match, nor does it give you any guidance or tips for how to best play the game. You can also only use one of the heroes, which means to experiment with any other character you need to do so in a real game. This normally wouldn't be too terrible, but since the only game mode requires you to team up with two other people, I feel really bad for bringing down the team while trying to learn the ropes. It also doesn't help that most of my teammates are jerks in this context.
I feel like, as with most online team games, this is probably a lot better to play with a group of friends, and that would probably provide a better environment to try to learn and get better. But as it stands, I think I'm out unless a proper training mode is added, or a free for all mode so I at least don't have to deal with bitter teammates. Granted, hero shooters are generally designed around team play to make different types of support and defense heroes relevant, so an FFA mode may never happen.
