The game's stability has been criticized for being buggy and confusing, with issues such as missing control information in the settings menu and visual glitches like snow obscuring visibility. Players have noted that these problems detract from the overall experience, leading some to consider waiting for a sale before purchasing.
- “For me, my biggest issue was with how not all of the controls are listed in the control section of the settings menu (shift, used to run, isn't mentioned. Nor is how to use health kits to heal yourself - unless health kits are only used to revive, not to heal? The game doesn't clearly state that at all.) In addition, the snow glitches through any and all cover and can get so heavy that it gets hard to see past it.”
- “After reading the reviews and learning how buggy and confusing this game is, I had decided that it seemed like a fun game to play with my friends (we play pretty much anything, good or bad, just to try it out) and so I decided I'd only get it if it goes on sale.”

Users report that the graphics are generally acceptable, even on older hardware, though some experience issues with missing textures and limited render zones. Overall, the game's visual performance seems to accommodate lower-end systems without significant problems.
- “My computer runs on a scrappy GTX 970 and my monitor is from the early 2000s, so I noticed no issues with the graphics in my game, other than the usual problems I face with textures simply not existing and my render zone being basically where my character is standing.”
