Gray Zone Warfare

brilliant game new stuff is being added all the time still being worked on but gets better and better with every update

Recommended with some asterisks. This game needs a lot more time in the oven. This game is essentially ARMA meets Tarkov, PVE Edition. The gunsmithing is straight from Tarky. The Gameplay is fine. The sound design is excellent, but everything is way too loud. Your character runs 15 feet then moans in your ear for 30 seconds while your stamina recharges. I keep my in-game headset on noise cancelling mode and everything is still too damn loud. The helicopter rides will give you IRL hearing damage. The guns sound like they went out to a range and set microphones up and shot around them. They sound very realistic. There are some weird interactions. I had a 2 space magazine in my gun. I had a 1 space magazine in my rig with no free slots. I reloaded and my 2 space magazine disappeared. It did not get thrown on the ground like I thought it would. It just evaporated. Enemy spawns need to be fixed ASAP. Clear a POI and take 1 step outside and get gunned down by the respawns behind you if you were there longer than the respawn timer. There are many forum posts and reddit posts about the horrible spawns. Enter a small house POI and 2 squads of 3-6 might spawn on both directions down the road and gun you down. I've died 4 times. 3 times were because enemies spawned stupid close to me. Once, I saw enemy bodies fall into the ground while despawning and the respawns popped right on top of me. We need a player market. The grind for trader levels is horrendous. The only way to level traders is to sell them loot for a horrendous rep return or to wait for random tasks to generate for them. Good luck getting meds cuz Lab Rat (the meds merchant) has very very few tasks that I have seen in my ~35 hours. Speaking of tasks, your friends can't join your tasks unless you are party lead and share it. Also if your buddy hops off the game you auto fail all shared tasks instead of them just staying because you were the party lead. The game is incredibly unoptimized. It runs like ♥♥♥♥. My PC is mid tier but I only get around 20 frames unless I turn on frame generation. If you want a very clearly early access "extraction shooter" go for it. I do not think this game should be called an extraction shooter. It's more of an FPS-MMO.
