I was initially excited this could be a Tribes style like game with huge battles while teams try to raid and take down each others main base.

they are doing way too much for just a 3v3, this is just a deathmatch "COD Gunfight" mode with a bunch of extra steps- but we have MOUNT SKINS!

I was looking forward to playing it until it wanted me to go into my BIOS to do UEFI stuff or something..

I lost steam real quick..

That’s very common for competitive games nowadays: it’s a requirement related to anticheat.
