Pros:
- Crossplay enabled
- Good/fun game mechanics
- Continuation of an underexplored genre
Cons:
- Buggy (e.g. voice chat dropping out in the lobby after a game)
- Frustrating lack of customisation. You can do an fleet battle with AI, but nothing else (dogfight, practice, etc).
Overall the core gameplay is good. There's so much potential for this game if it just gave you a bit more freedom over how to play it. Feels like another case of EA ruining it by cramming it into the mould of what they think a multiplayer game should be.
