    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players praising the improvements and realism compared to its predecessor, while others criticize them as outdated or average. Many agree that the visuals are acceptable for modern standards, but there are notable inconsistencies, such as bugs and simplistic designs. Overall, while the graphics may not be groundbreaking, they are often considered a step up from the previous installment, contributing positively to the gameplay experience.

    • “The graphics look circa 2005'ish.”
  • stability
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is currently a significant issue, with players reporting numerous bugs, including problematic tank movement, poor hitbox detection, and general gameplay glitches. While the game shows promise, its early access status means that these stability problems detract from the overall experience, leading many to advise against purchasing until improvements are made.

    • “To start with, tank gameplay is quite raw and needs total rework: the movement is buggy, you can’t even turn the tank properly.”
    • “Buggy as hell.”
    • “It's not really worth it; it's quite buggy and the hitboxes are terrible. That's not just me shooting someone and missing, but from the experience of having a long fight with a dude at close range, and neither of us being able to kill the other. We just ended up staying still and shooting at each other, and nobody got a hit. I'd say you shouldn't buy this for now. The game looks good, and if the developers are able to fix these problems, it will be a decent game.”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game lacks a traditional campaign or storyline, focusing solely on multiplayer gameplay. Reviewers suggest that the absence of a narrative could be improved with daily activities, missions, or a campaign mode featuring AI opponents and engaging story elements.

    • “The campaign mode features engaging battles against AI, complete with a compelling story and clear objectives.”
    • “The game could benefit from daily team or squad activities, missions, and events to enhance the overall experience.”
    • “While the game is purely multiplayer, incorporating a storyline could add depth and keep players invested.”
    • “The game is purely multiplayer, so there’s no campaign or storyline whatsoever.”
    • “Since BR2 doesn’t feature any kind of storyline, let’s just make a straight jump to the gameplay.”
  • music
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's music features old gramophones in villages that play classical, Soviet, and heroic tunes, which players find to be a brilliant addition. Overall, the incorporation of music enhances the atmosphere and immersion of the game.

    • “More music!”
    • “Villages, on the other hand, have old gramophones that play classical, Soviet, or heroic music.”
    • “Whoever came up with the idea of putting a gramophone in the game with music is a genius!”
    • “More music.”
  • monetization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization of the game is criticized as a cash grab, with users expressing disappointment over abandoned support and a lack of meaningful updates, such as new maps and improved AI. Players suggest exploring alternatives like the free Battlerush 1 instead.

    • “Just another EA cash grab.”
    • “All support is abandoned; it was a quick cash grab game. They are already making another game with almost the same assets. It's sad to see the potential wasted. P.S. If you want to play a bit, maybe try Battlerush 1 as it's free.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game is praised for its impressive graphics and strong optimization, which enhances the gameplay experience. However, some users have reported issues with network lag and server performance, leading to concerns about combat mechanics and potential cheating. Despite these issues, the game remains enjoyable for casual play with friends.

    • “The only things it really has going for it are good graphics and great optimization along with that.”
    • “This game is amazing whether it is a mess about with a few mates or even just a boredom fix; either way, I would recommend trying it. Compared to the first one, it has PUBG-like graphics and better optimization.”
    • “A lot of complaints about cheating... I'm going to sit on the fence with this one. I have observed some very strange combat, but then again, with the network lag and server performance, that could be due to many factors, not just cheating.”
    • “This game is amazing whether it's a mess about with a few mates or just a boredom fix. I would recommend trying it, and compared to the first one, it has better optimization, though it's still a bit of a mess.”
  • grinding
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious and frustrating, particularly due to the need for resource scavenging while facing aggressive opponents. The randomness of loot distribution adds to the dissatisfaction, leading to concerns that excessive grinding could result in player boredom over time.

    • “Why do I have to scavenge for food? Gathering resources is so tedious while the other team just rushes at your base. Why can I only find scopes and things in random boxes in village houses?”
    • “If the game requires a lot of grinding to progress, players will get bored quickly.”
  • replayability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    While the game offers around 20 hours of enjoyable gameplay for just $5, reviewers feel it could benefit from additional elements to enhance replayability. Suggestions include features like playable pianos in buildings to increase engagement in subsequent playthroughs.

    • “Needs some more elements added for replayability, but for $5, you get 20 hours of pretty fun gameplay.”
    • “Needs some more elements added for replayability, but for 5 bucks, you get 20 hours of some pretty fun gameplay.”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is generally perceived as cartoonish and amusing, which works well in a more lighthearted context. However, players feel that such comedic elements clash with the realism of more serious styled games.
