The graphics of the game are generally praised for their modern aesthetic and appealing art style, with some users highlighting the impressive design of units and explosions. However, criticisms arise regarding long loading times and a lack of polish in effects, UI, and map design, which detracts from the overall experience. While some players find the visuals to be a strong point, others feel that the game's design flaws overshadow the graphical quality.
- “Just an awesome game made by one man. Amazing game! The graphics and gameplay are some of the best in RTS games ever!”
- “The graphics look very good, but there is still a lot of work to do with the effects, UI, maps, and units.”
- “Armor Clash 3 is a hidden gem for RTS fans. The visuals are excellent, from the unit and building designs to the explosion physics.”
- “Graphics are fairly topnotch but has a disproportionately long loading time for simple, at best, map design (we are talking 3 minutes for a flat map and a handful of buildings on an SSD. Friggin' Forged Battalion has quicker load times and allows 8 player FFA with interesting map design).”
- “The only thing this game has going for it is the art style.”
- “It has modern graphics.”

The gameplay has been criticized for poor quality control, clunky mechanics, and a lack of content, making it feel bare-bones and not worth the full price.

There is potential for improvement, particularly in camera controls and unit variety, but currently, the experience is hindered by its limitations.

- “Awesome game, it's a little bare bones at the moment, but core gameplay is a lot of fun.”
- “Not so much fun with broken mechanics but has potential.”
- “The quality control is very poor and not worth anything but the steepest of discounts. I'm going to be very hard pressed to meet my hour of gameplay per hour spent.”
- “The mechanics of moving the map are clunky with no keyboard support. The content is incredibly scarce, with challenges and units, and there is a total lack of multiplayer. The camera and unit variety would be simple fixes to improve the game quite a lot.”
- “The quality control is very poor and not worth anything but the steepest of discounts. I'm going to be very hard pressed to meet my hour of gameplay per hour spent.”
