Okay, I'm not sure where to start.

Firstly it runs smooth, considering it's a beta and will probably improve even more, the first thing I noticed is once I land I am not stuck in the air for 5 sceonds, then falling and taking fall damage < refeering to PubG and how their landing system works. >

I'm going to start by saying I love it, you shouldn't be judging gameplay, unless you're trying the game yourself, because it is amazing.
If you're not willing to try the game hands on, you shouldn't be judging it everyone whom has played it, seems to love it like myself.

they're got many of features which stand out to me, I love the fact that there's Zombies on the map you have a wave of those, which are kinda of in the middle of easy / hard to kill, but whilst fighting zombies enemies can also come in.

vehicles:
Here's what I think, they're awesome, you're not stuck in a certain postion, things like the truck you can stand, move around and do all sorts on the back.

Handling:
Once you get use to the Left Stick to Go / Slow Down & The Right to Move around, it's great the vehicles feel realistic, sound wise.

Audio: You can pick up exactly where someone is if you take the time to listen, knowing if they're below, next, above you can pin point exactly where they are.

Weapons:
I'm still testing these, but I feel they're really good depending if you want close combat or long range, you have weapons just for that.

Map:
It's really big, brings back so many good times in my life, whilst it's stated to take 5 Minutes to run from one side to another, 5 minutes of running in game is still quiet a bit of time, I feel like there's a lot of pontional on things that can do.
Bushes: I feel preventing them to be camped in is an amazing idea, I love that they've made them solid whilst you can use them for cover you can shoot through them.
You'd think that because they added all these maps from other games, it wouldn't make since. but everything blends together so well, as if it's just a huge place..

Movement, I feel it's very fluentant I've not had many issues currently.

Healing: there's many of options to heal, I love that there isn't a cap like FN where bandages take you to 75, which is understandable as it's more fast paced, there's many different types some more rare than others such as Trauma that takes you to 200 HP from one use. I feel they've done a great job on medkits, I'm looking forward to trying new characters they release over the week, including more tweaks / fixes for week 2 also.

Perks: the fact that you can't just spawn in with perks is amazing, I like that you have to find them, you can activate them for a limited amount of time, to increase movement speed or increase the amount of healing, also to find loot & vehicles. 10/10 on the idea.

Honestly, I give this beta a 9/10 there's nothing really bad I can say but the crashing issues, which seem to be resolved now.

This game is more optimizde runns 10x better than PubG did when it was released on both PC & Xbox, I feel they can master this game on PC and it could 100% be better than pubg for many of reasons, there could be a little more balancing to be done, but all around I think it's amazing, it's what I've wanted for a long time...

Of course I've been playing for a few hours I'm going to update this post when I play around some more.

< Sorry Post is all over the place, I will update it soon >

I have to agree with you, PUBG on console is pretty lackluster. I like the game and it's mechanics, sure it doesn't have the greatest graphics but hey it hits a solid 60 fps and it's fun. I know Treyarch will fix the picking up weapons mechanic when it releases, and can't really complain about anything.

to my knowledge, it's confirmed 4k? I feel graphics will probably change in the full release, it's a beta afterall I feel them working solidy on making the game perform good is what they've been working on, I feel they've smashed that & now to the next stage.

I haven't played it yet as I'm a Xbox player but watching people play it looks so good, I just can't wait to have my hands on it

Still judging completely on gameplay since I don't have a PlayStation. I think is completely relevant to watch the game and at least make some assumptions about it.

It already looks way better than PUBG.
It looks really slow in my opinion, that's kind of what CoD is to me. Watching streams honestly makes me feel like I'm running across a huge map like derail without marathon and lightweight pro.

Kill times seem way too long but it also makes sense, because insta kills would be even worse.

I really can't wait to give the beta a try. I can't wait to see if I enjoy playing it more than I do watching it.
I don't see myself playing it over fortnite honestly, I'm not a fan of BRs and I think I enjoy fortnite because of their own aspects such as building, but that's not 100%, I could really enjoy blackout and play it a ton, I'm usually great at cod and my gunskill is great, so that might make it more enjoyable.

From the gameplays I've seen I'm pretty impressed so far, not what I expected.
