It did take off for a time, and now it looks like it’s an early access game that hasn’t had an update in 19 months. And I can tell you that if they don’t let me host the server myself and play via LAN, they’re not solving any problems for me over Battlefield.
I love Battlebit and its a fun time, but it already did take off, sold literally millions of copies (nearly 2 million in its first 2 weeks), and then was effectively abandoned by the developers.
Yeah well too bad that ship has sailed as well. Such a shame, BF2, BC2 and BF3 were quality games, just needed a modern take of one of those instead of whatever this is we got.

There aren’t exactly a wealth of games doing what Battlefield does outside of Battlefield itself.

Battlebit is fantastic. The only reason it hasn’t taken off is because of gamerbros that can’t handle anything besides realistic graphics

The developers recently made a Steam post that they are coming back with a big update so... Here's hoping

I can handle the graphics, I just suck too much at the game

That hardly makes it generic though.

If you've played any triple A shooters, you've played them all.
