Short Info:
I only played this game in PvE together with a friend, so I did not play PvP at all!
If anyone asks me how I would rate the game right now, I’d say it’s around 7.5–8/10. The game is already fun, but since it’s still in pre-alpha, a lot is missing: a proper skill system (I think a Tarkov-style progression system would work really well, allowing players to train their body for stamina, strength, and other attributes), more variety in weapons, ammo, and enemies, and more mission types. That said, it has a lot of potential and does many things right.
Pros:
The open world is really nice to explore.
The movement and military feel are excellent.
The graphics are very good, especially the weather environments like rain and storms.
It already feels worth the money at pre-alpha stage.
The developers and support i talked with are awesome.
Cons / Areas for Improvement:
The game still needs a proper skill system where you can develop your character further.
There isn’t enough variety in weapons, ammo, enemies, or missions yet.
Open-world areas can feel dead before you arrive. For example, when we tried to go to places like Tiger Bay Midnight Sapphire, Fort Narith or YBL-1 everything was often already wiped out. The few times we got there first were fine, but in our opinion the enemies still felt under-equipped and weak. It would be great if certain raids could start in a closed environment, either for missions or just for fun—like raiding Tiger Bay or Midnight Sapphire.
Ammo and NPC armor don’t feel very meaningful right now. NPCs mostly always wear the same gear and rarely have face cover or anything like that. About 90% of the time, I played with an M4/DDM4 using 60-round magazines and basic FMJ ammo because it didn’t really matter. Other ammo types, such as 9x19 or 7.62x51, didn’t feel any different, which definitely shouldn’t be the case.
Personal Hopes/Wishes:
A character skill system where you can level up things like weight limit, stamina, weapon mastery, and other attributes.
The ability to do certain areas or missions without them already being wiped out, since that takes a lot of the fun away.
Stronger enemies, or an option to enter more difficult raids/areas. That would make the game more interesting and force players to play even more tactically, which I think is one of the main themes of the game.
A clan system with a personal clan base where you can plan missions/raids in larger groups. Combined with stronger NPCs, that could be insanely fun.
Overall:
My friend and I had a great time, and since it’s still pre-alpha, we think the game is already worth the price. We’re super excited about the alpha update and all future updates. We hope the best for this game—the support team and developers are awesome, and we can’t wait to see what’s next!
