The gameplay is generally well-received for its balance and fast-paced mechanics, though some users suggest that the inclusion of PvE may not significantly enhance the experience unless more players are involved. However, there are calls for improvements in shooting mechanics and the addition of aim down sights (ADS) to further refine the gameplay.
“Overall, it's a pretty solid game with cool mechanics, and I like how it's fast-paced. It might need more playtesters, though, to catch some issues.”
“Due to the balanced gameplay, there may not be an advantage to include PvE except in cases where additional players are desired.”
“The shooting mechanics need significant improvement, and the addition of aim down sights (ADS) would enhance the gameplay experience.”
“Gameplay feels clunky and unresponsive, making it frustrating to engage in combat.”
“The lack of variety in gameplay mechanics leads to repetitive and dull experiences.”

The game, currently in early access, suffers from numerous bugs and glitches, including random teleportation and inconsistent hitmarker sounds. Additionally, the lack of a mute option for open-mic communication contributes to a chaotic audio experience.
“The game is in early access, and early access games have bugs, glitches, and aren't the finished product.”
“It has a lot of bugs and glitches; you teleport randomly for no good reason at all. The hitmarker sounds are very random, and there is no 'toggle to mute' option, meaning that the game has open-mic, so everyone can come in and scream, shout, and just do whatever they want.”
