The story aspect of the game is characterized by lengthy missions that can take upwards of an hour to complete, but players express frustration over the lack of mid-mission save options, leading to potential setbacks if they die. While the missions are described as engaging and reminiscent of old-school gameplay, the initial lack of guidance and clarity in objectives can detract from the experience. Overall, players appreciate the depth of the missions but are eager for improvements, such as save features and clearer instructions.
- “Personally, I recommend the game to those looking for an old-school lone wolf experience (keep in mind this is not a polished product) and I'm waiting for the future release of single-player missions/maps (check the roadmap) - I don't care about the multiplayer part of the game!”
- “My reason given for the refund: the developer wouldn't consider inserting something as basic as a save in the middle of a mission and laughed at the idea of having one.”
- “The first training mission doesn't tell you where to go; after you leave the first building, there's no instructions or hints on what to do next.”
- “The first mission involves a briefing in a helicopter, after which you're dumped in a swamp near some bad guys whom you're expected to take out, except none of your weapons are silenced.”

The game's stability has received mixed feedback, with some users reporting significant glitches, such as vehicle control issues and level-specific bugs that hinder gameplay.

- “It runs great at ultra on a GTX 1080 / i5-8600 combo (1080p 60fps)”
- “I tried driving the buggy and it won't turn, and if you reverse, it starts doing backflips.”
- “Some glitches too; for example, in the warehouse level, the ladder in the bunker underground on the left is glitched and does not let me get out of the ladder on top, so I have to instead go to the roof of the building on the right to jump.”
