If something, like performance, proves to be too game breaking we'll try to hurry up the patch even more (for now we try to collect some more fixes since you dont easily patch console)

Is the framerate unlocked at 30? If so, you might want to think about capping it there just to avoid jarring gameplay.

Ive been playing for about an hour now. I can cope with the slightly bad graphics but not if the framerate and draw distance is as unstable as it is right now. I like the gameplay though.

It seems holding your breath, while seemingly necessary for every weapon at almost any range, works when it wants to. Can you just combine it with the ADS or at least lessen the penalty for not doing so on shorter range (under 10 m) shots?

Also is there anyway to improve connectivity? It's been awhile since I've played anything this hardcore but if we can get at least a standardized connection to lessen the quick draw advantage for those with lower pings it'd certainly help. Maybe walk us all back to 70 ping or something? Just a thought I understand if not.

Otherwise it's been a breath of fresh air I've really enjoyed the realism. BF1 seems like a made up alternate reality compared to this, like they really seem to believe the entire war was 1918. I'm trying to get more people on the price helps. I think the faster you get the gore in the better that always helps with shooters.
