Played one game so far:
1. Game starts you in a mini-tutorial to get a feel for some controls. It then gives you an opportunity to shoot every game as often as you want to get a feel for it. And, there is a little shooting bar to increase or decrease your sensitivity in-game to get a feel for the right setting.
2. Shooting feels pretty crisp and the sound and feel are solid. There is recoil and bullet spray just like CS.
I played one 5v5 game, which we won 13-9. I was 10/19/8. I didn't do great. I was just getting a feel for the map and sight lines by the end of the match.
3. When you get shot by another player you nearly come to a stop so you have to play carefully and watch how aggressive you are. Have to let the other players come to you. Once I hung back a little more, I had more success.
4. The abilities are a little weird. I have to learn how to use them. If you play too aggressively, you'll wind up walking into all the abilities at just the wrong time and get yourself killed. Have to let the other players spam them out to get rid of them. I'm not much of a fan of them right now. To me, it feels like the building mechanic of Fortnite. I need more time trying all of the heroes to get a feel for my play style.
5. Headshots are super important more than anything. It's still possible to get kills as I got 10 in my first match and I didn't do well at all compared to my team (although, I wasn't last).
6. Enemy players are outlined in red so it's easy to pick them up when they are in view.
7. Movement feels a little slow but I probably just have to get used to it.
Overall, game looks good and it feels good. I think it has potential. I'd say it's worth a try if you like Counterstrike.
