If you have your PS5 connected via Ethernet cable to the WiFi & you connect it to the same WiFi then it’s somewhat a manageable experience in games other than fast shooting. But otherwise it’s worthless if you use boosters in home or connect via Indian internet. A good way to test the waters before buying is using RemotePlay app on your phone & you can also connect duelsense to your phone to see exactly how the experience will be.

20 hours in, completed all challenges. If their roadmap is good, I might get the Phantom Edition. P.S. Hope they add quad bikes on launch, or eventually. Also needs a vehicle testing range of sorts. The default jet/heli settings feels off to me.

I don’t think many ppl have switched off cross-play in general. Coz it’s a Beta & not many ppl are aware that it’s wide spread. Cross-Play off on Xbox living in EurAsia is generally going to leave you lonely.

Don’t turn cross play off if you’re on Xbox, that’s gonna not yield you a lobby.

Its worth is completely dependent on your use case. If you are going to use it properly, its definitely going to be worth it. A friend has it and as per him, performance is excellent and without any issues.
