A friend and I just began playing this on PS4, and TheHangedMan and I are going to try to play it this weekend. Does anyone else want to join? It's free-to-play and after five or six hours of playing I don't feel any pressure to spend money. As far as the mechanics go, it's like Destiny in that it's basically an instanced MMO. The focus is on leveling your character and your weapons through replaying various missions. It's mostly PvE but there's a few 4v4 PvP modes too. It might get a little grindy but so far killing dudes has been pretty fun.
THM, I'm on PDT so you're 10 hours ahead of me. I could play Saturday or Sunday at 10 or 11 AM PDT.
