Damn, with 0 marketing leading up to launch too.

Respawn deserve the success and maybe they can expand to be able to do TF3, support apex and Star Wars concurrently.

Yep. It was also mentioned that the number is heading towards 3m. No specific details on how close to 3m it is, though.

Wow that's a huge launch.

Hopefully we'll be seeing more games like this in the future, and more companies going in this direction.

Battle royale has much room to grow, and we're also getting AAA quality games for free? Brilliant.

Great launch. Legs are required though, let's see these numbers the coming months. Wish Respawn the best.

Brilliant execution. Had this been announced months ago a tidal wave of EA hate for loot box monetezation would have deflated any momentum the game might have. Now the game is out and the only thing to evaluate is the game on its own merits. This was a gamble and it seems to have paid off well.

Deserved, the only other BR besides Fortnite that I've really liked, can see me playing this for awhile.

It would be great if I could play it.

I literally cannot aim (PC), it just won't move. I can navigate all the menus, but in the game itself, my cursor is stuck in the middle of the screen.

I have restarted the game, my pc, reset every single setting to default, and even re-installed the game. Zero luck. I'm incredibly frustrated.

I'm a bit disappointed that this game isn't quite what I wanted, but very very pleased that Respawn are finally getting some much deserved success.

Damn Hope they'll nail the post launch support. The long term success is all depends on it

Really hope this helps Respawn. Great developers with mich talent. Would be sad to see them close down just because of 1 game (TF2).

Edit: Game is fun btw, and I'm not much of a BR player

This game plays amazing. I did dreams for titans etc but I'll let respawn off as there is just so many amazing little touches. Amazing game. Already been a champion getting the last two kills.

No surprise, I just joined a match and it quickly popped up saying "994 players in queue" before disappearing

Respawn deserves the crown. This is the most fun shooter I played since Modern Warfare 2 and I don't know how long I've been waiting to say that, sadly I didn't enjoy the Titan gameplay even though I enjoyed a lot in TF1.

Its a great game and they deserve some success after what happened to poor TF2. I'm really liking this game and i did NOT expect that at all!

Opportunities to take the game in different directions. Esports will be part of that. New game modes, legends etc...

Can't wait, I enjoy the game but not too much into battle royale - I love alternative modes

It also features a very diverse cast and I can't see any sort of sexualization in it. Perfect.

Looking at mobile ver. and crossplay

Good to hear!

This is the first BR game that I really enjoy.

Excellent gunplay from TF and movement/traversal (sliding, climbing) is awesome. It feels good and looks good. And you can not only ping locations but loot and enemies - so simple and yet it already feels like it's doing everything better than any other BR game. You just notice that they put a ton of thought into every detail. I assume that this will surpass every other BR game (except Fortnite).

Crazy, especially with how sudden and out of the blue the launch of this game was. Imagine what those numbers would be if they were hyping it a bit before?

I downloaded this yesterday but haven't had a chance to try it yet. So +1 to that 2.5 million at some point. Game looks fun, glad to see Respawn with a hit.

Respawn is just showing they are one of the best when it comes to FPS. Their games have always been top notch and propelled the genre.

So good to hear. It came out of nowhere to become the most polished BR game out there that isn't called Fortnite. It plays like an absolute dream, looks gorgeous, and runs at 60fps on PS4. It's a miracle how so many BR games come out and keep making PUBG look worse and worse.
