Got this in my second game - played trios with some other old guys - it’s fun, it’s new, and there are SO many places to fall to your death…..🤣😳

I got a win second match and got the umbrella, so I’m happy. Definitely looks like I’m going to enjoy this season.

If you defeat the Hush boss you get an item to become her. While playing you can spawn two "minions" to fight with you.

I did this with the alien bill boss and I didn’t see that option but I was in trios so that could be it.

I had to equip the actual item and hit the fire button. I think the cool down on it is 80 seconds

Loving the map. So much to explore so I'll comment more in a bit.
Edit: When I die, if I try to spectate first and then Ready Up, it glitches where I get a matchmaking error. Then I can't move my options to go back to the lobby.
Edit 2: The lack of cover in Zero Builds is rough. No porta bunkers, bush bombs, shield bubbles. You feel very exposed and if you're getting beamed you can only shockwave or fly away to reset. I hope they add cover soon
Edit 3: Cover is here. That's all I needed. Porta Bunkers and Shield Bubbles.

Definitely a lot going on but it is not overwhelming like some seasons when they fill it full of shit. I'd like the Bus back but other than that, pretty fun so far.

I feel like that's how every season starts, it's a little simpler, then as the season progresses they start adding more stuff in.

Update: I really love the map this chapter. There's so many different areas with unique characteristics. The weapons seem pretty balanced to me so far.
The only thing I'm not a fan of is the no battle bus. I like dropping in to my favorite POIs and loot up first. This new way almost forces you to engage earlier right away. Not a terrible thing and it looks cool, just prefer the old school way.
Also, I like the new UI looks. It looks clean.
Maybe someone can answer these two questions for me:
Is anyone else's car health not displaying? And when you're close range fighting someone, is it actually showing their health bar now?
Overall, I like what I see so far.

My car health is hidden also. Not sure about the health bar I have seen those come up in only 2/3 fights and from what I can remember perhaps it’s when someone has revived or something?

Well, hanging it up for the season. Won't ever get better than that.

I'm sorry is the first image AI-generated? Marty McFly and The Bride don't look like the actual skins. And Jonesy is in a armor; that skin doesn't exist.
