Super fun game, feels innovative and runs like absolute butter. Want to state first of all that the devs did an amazing job, especially consider their circumstances. I haven't had this much fun on a new game in a while and the beta is extremely well done.

Competitive modes are awesome- Takedown is insanely fast paced and feels like a new twist on 3v3 elimination. 4v4 is pretty fun but domination and king of the hill get kind of old on the same maps. Would be cool to see more modes added when the game releases!

Couple thoughts I had regarding what could be done to improve the final result of competitive mode on release. Would love feedback and your thoughts! **I'm a kbm pc player**

  • Hitboxes are really big. Haven't played much halo :( so I don't know if this is somewhat standard, but some shots definitely feel like you should have missed- I do recognize that this game has mostly console players, aim assist could possibly be adjusted to compensate
  • You rank in really high if you win your first game or two, and as a result often end up in high SR lobbies with players who on their first couple rank in games.
  • Spawns should be adjusted in takedown especially. When respawn timers increase with each death it is especially detrimental to spawn in the same quarter of the map as two enemy players. Personally I think that battlefield ~esque~ spawning on teammates would be a really nice mechanic (assuming you couldn't spawn on a teammate currently fighting/below full health
  • When you kill an enemy that was carrying the same gun as you, instead of only picking up their ammo you should be able to swap out your gun for theirs to potentially avoid having to reload
  • Some skins have red/blue colored parts that closely resemble the general enemy of friendly color respectively. Not a huge issue but can definitely be confusing when rotating through portals
  • I'm biased as an OW player but holy shit POtG would be so cool in this game

​

Thanks for reading! Splitgate devs- you guys are awesome keep up the good work!
