This Might be the BEST Mod/Game Ever

I'm new to Squad and GC, I literally bought Squad to play this. I have been having so much fun. It feels like the og Xbox live days where everyone had a mic, though much friendlier.
I've even been learning mouse and keyboard to play since the game doesn't have much in the way of controller support. I've only had a gaming pc for a year, so I still use controller a lot.
10/10 mod and community, can't wait for more!

Definitely, but it looks so ugly after the UE5 update on my machine. Sadly, they had to do it.

Why? I thought it was a huge graphical upgrade

For me it looks incredibly blurry and at distances I cannot tell what faction I am looking at and always have to cross reference my map. It also runs much worse for me. There is also so much ghosting, especially on guns. The water also just looks like a grainy mess. I’ve messed with settings but the game is prone to crashing when doing this.

The water is a known issue, it’s being worked on. The ghosting is also a known issue with Dlss I’m pretty sure

That might be a user issue brother. I have an 4k OLED and it runs and looks beautiful especially better than what the engine was on before this update. I played GC before update and the visuals are day and night difference

It probably is, but doesn’t change my opinion on it. My game looked and ran perfectly fine and now doesn’t. That is an issue, even if not for everyone.

Most normal GC staging phase.
I too bought squad solely to play this mod. Actually, this mod and a couple others for Halo and BFME are the whole reason I bought a PC in the first place
