Radical Heights

A new free to play BR game coming out on PC tomorrow.

This is made by Bosskey productions Cliffy B's studio, after the failure of Lawbreakers they've bounced back with this. I'm a sucker for 80s corny aesthetic, so I'll be checking it out. :up:

From that video it doesn't appear to have anything that Fortnite doesn't already do. The aesthetic (well, technical aesthetic) of the two games is near identical too... I can't say this one grabbed me. The money/buying/saving aspect worries me a bit too, only because Fortnite already edges close to farming resources a bit and it's a slight drag. From that video with its accounts and spin to wins and vending machines, Radical Heights seems to embrace that harder.

It does have bikes and stunts though, that's cool. But having said that, Fortnite has building which is quite a big game changer.

Anyway they're just straight up impressions. Not trying to be a hater, I was actually keen from reading your post. I'll definitely try it out.

Played it quickly this morning, it's pretty rough and the action doesn't offer really anything we haven't seen before, at least there is proper bullet recoil and none of that bloom shit in fortnite. It plays more like an arcadey version of pubg. The money idea is interesting, it's like cs:go were you need to have enough cash to buy gear. We'll have to see but it definitely needs more time in the oven.
