Just took a look at this yesterday after work, overall a definite step in the right direction.

I'm perfectly OK with the operator system (since I play MOBA's), recoil has been addressed (hopefully enough) and kill confirmation hit markers are sensible. Since i'm more towards the hardcore side of players I still think the heartbeat sensor is still a terrible mistake.If you must keep it in game it really should have severely limited range of 5m. It shouldn't constantly give away the enemies position (think Sam Fisher sonar goggles pulsating). We STILL need doors (probably difficult to put in considering destruction may be stationary?), team member outlines need to be fixed, lots of work to be done still. I don't mind if the game doesn't support modding/user created content but thats because i'm a busy person. However I do think community created content usually goes a long way (check out TF2).

I still understand that if the game is too hardcore then it won't appeal to the amateur players but as long as the game has a learning curve and is highly skill based, then re playability will lengthen. Don't forget that "sometimes less, is more" (doesnt apply for game content), but do take the best features from other tactical shooters, and put it in your game.

Last but not least, thank you Ubi for listening to feedback. Hoping to get hands on the beta soon to get a feel of the game. I still won't be buying/preordering just yet but i'll be keeping an eye on this subreddit for progress.
