That seems to be a problem with their expectations, not the game.
You are actually right. I tried this game as a friend liked it, and it basically does everything that COD does, but for free, so it’s not the worst way for somebody to spend their time online. Still, I imagine Ubi execs promised to dethrone every other shooter and have 100 million payers to milk for MTX.
It's also a problem that it's exclusive to the Ubisoft launcher and isn't on Steam...
It was enough to make me too lazy to bother even when the hype was there. Now it seems even the community that plays/played it is negative on it so even less likely to bother with Ubisoft launcher for it than at launch. I have UPlay installed too, but I don't even know if anyone in my friend list from Steam was playing it compared to other games that they are shown playing.
I was going to play it, but poor linix compatibility with the ubisoft launcher killed that for me.
