The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the weapon customization and fast-paced action, while others criticize it for being clunky, unbalanced, and reminiscent of outdated mechanics. Many users noted issues such as poor hit detection, a lack of engaging content, and a frustrating pay-to-win model, leading to an overall perception of the gameplay as mediocre or lacking depth. Despite its potential and some enjoyable elements, the game struggles with significant gameplay flaws that detract from the overall experience.
- “The game offers great weapon customization and solid gameplay.”
- “Very fun gameplay, weapons are balanced, it's not pay to win; in fact, most of the 'premium' weapons have the same stats as the game currency weapons, just a shinier coat of paint.”
- “The gameplay feels amazing, smooth, fast, and the weapon sounds and animations are top-notch.”
- “The gameplay is pretty trash, and it isn't user friendly.”
- “What crappy mechanics and gameplay, so stuttery and utter crap.”
- “The gameplay is extremely lacking, there's hardly any maps in the game to play on, there's no way to get more ammo except for respawning, and the time to kill enemies is pretty high for a tactical FPS if you don't score a headshot.”

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players praising the decent visuals and smooth performance, especially for a free-to-play title, while others criticize the graphics as outdated, poorly optimized, or lacking in detail. Many users express disappointment with the disparity between promotional materials and actual in-game graphics, suggesting that improvements are needed to enhance the overall aesthetic experience. Overall, while some find the graphics acceptable or even good, a significant number of players feel they fall short of modern standards.
- “One of those games that are amazingly fun to play with fast paced combat and stunning graphics for the space required.”
- “The graphics are great and feels very smooth and optimized.”
- “Straight off the bat with the graphics- they're amazing for a free to play game (even though the anti-aliasing in menus and icons needs some working) everything is customizable and there are a lot of options for character design, and same goes for all the maps, which have excellent texturing.”
- “The graphics are shit.”
- “Nothing like what the game shows even when I apply high graphics settings it looks no different than Unturned compared to the trailer.”
- “Terrible graphics, clunky gameplay, how can you mess up like that in a UE game...”

The story aspect of the game is primarily driven by daily, weekly, and monthly missions that provide in-game currency (gp) and rewards, encouraging players to engage in repetitive tasks to progress. While the missions are seen as a fun way to earn currency, many players express frustration over the slow pace of earning enough gp to purchase desired weapons, which often require significant grinding. Overall, the narrative experience is tied closely to the mission structure, with players wishing for more cooperative gameplay elements to enhance the story.
- “Gameplay story (single player) started game and into tutorial - nice.”
- “To reach the 144k needed to get the gun of your choice, you would only need to do the daily and weekly missions a few times and you're set.”
- “It's amazing just focus on having fun and daily, weekly, monthly missions.”
- “Well, technically, even though there are daily, weekly, and monthly missions, it still won't let us get stuff easily. You have to rent weapons without any attachments on them, or as I call it, 'raw'.”
- “There are daily missions which help boost your amount, but much like any other free-to-play game, at the end of the day, you're stuck grinding for weapons.”
- “So realistically, you could play this game and receive the benefit of missions as well as achievements that help boost your GP, but once those achievements are received and the missions are done, earning 500 GP per match for a permanent weapon that costs 400K+ seems like a real challenge.”

The game's optimization has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many players reporting severe performance issues, particularly on older hardware, resulting in low frame rates and poor hit detection. While a few users noted smooth performance and good optimization on their systems, the consensus leans towards it being poorly optimized overall, leading to a frustrating experience for most players.
- “So far I'm really enjoying this game, looks fairly good and runs smoothly.”
- “A combat arms, Ghost in the Shell, and many other games like this, but they're all not great. This one, on the other hand, is not only fun and not pay-to-win, but also well optimized, satisfying, and addicting.”
- “The game is very nicely optimized, not many crashes at all!”
- “This game is very unoptimized for CPUs like Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, and Phenom CPUs, or just old CPUs.”
- “Game still has awful optimization and trash hitboxes.”
- “This game is so unoptimized that even my GTX 960m plays the game around 10fps.”

The reviews indicate that the game features a significant grinding element, particularly for acquiring and permanently unlocking weapons, which can be tedious and time-consuming. While some players find the grind manageable and not overly frustrating, others criticize it as excessive and reminiscent of pay-to-win mechanics, where substantial in-game currency is required to maintain access to weapons. Overall, the grinding aspect is a mixed bag, with some players enjoying the challenge while others feel it detracts from the overall experience.
- “It is a pretty solid game with good graphics and cool mechanics like the kinds of superpowers and psionic abilities. It's not pay-to-win at all, and it's not that grindy to get the stuff you want.”
- “Gaining levels is tedious, boring, and so slow even your grandma can walk faster.”
- “It's always frustrating when a game has a lot of features but it has a bad money grinding system.”
- “You'll be grinding out about a dozen matches or more for a single modification on your beginning permanent gun.”

The game's monetization model has been criticized as a cash grab, heavily relying on microtransactions for character and weapon customization, which many players feel detracts from the overall experience. While some users appreciate the game's potential and customizability, they argue that the pricing and ad placements hinder its accessibility and enjoyment. Overall, the consensus suggests that a more balanced approach to pricing and monetization could improve player retention and satisfaction.
- “Overall, I would recommend it if you are okay with microtransactions and like customizability.”
- “Newcomers get some limited stuff to use for the first 14 days, and for the first 30 days, you get a GP and EXP booster. Right now, for the attendance award, they are giving out free gems, which is 50 a day, and these gems are used in microtransactions.”
- “There are in-game purchases (real money) for upgrades, and it's up to you if you want to spend some money on it.”
- “In general, not a bad FPS game, but it suffers a lot because the developers don't have a clue about economy and a good business model, resulting in it being a cash grab.”
- “The first thing they released in the game is all their microtransactions.”
- “With every update, they release more in-game purchases for money instead of fixing everything wrong with the game currently.”

The game is plagued by numerous bugs and glitches, leading to a frustrating experience for players, including issues like screen distortions, freezing, and unresponsive abilities. Despite being marketed as a full release, many users feel it still resembles an early access title, with developers acknowledging the problems and working on fixes. Overall, the stability of the game is a significant concern, making it hard to recommend at this time.
- “Currently I cannot recommend this game as it freezes on 'Blackpoint Entertainment' and then promptly crashes. I will update as and when a fix arrives.”
- “The bugs and glitches are like a knife in the feels.”
- “Last... yes, the game is buggy quite a bit, but what can you expect with a game still in early days?”

The humor in the game is a mixed bag, with some players enjoying the funny tutorial and amusing character descriptions, while others find the gameplay mechanics, such as the inaccurate shooting and absurdity of certain features, to be more frustrating than funny. Overall, it offers moments of humor that can entertain for a few hours, but opinions vary on its lasting comedic value.
- “The tutorial is funny, with the speaker treating you like a baby in kindergarten. I wish there was an option for that speaker to comment on your actual gameplay; that would be hilarious.”
- “It's a good and funny game, and it is not pay-to-win.”
- “Each player doesn't have their own unique character per se, as you select one of four generic soldier dudes (hilarious descriptions, by the way) where you simply add bulkier armor and helmets to slightly improve your protection stats, which won't matter anyway as your head is turned to literal meaty bits from a headshot.”
