The game's story is generally well-received, with players appreciating the engaging missions and graphics. However, many users report significant issues with mission bugs, crashes, and difficulty spikes, particularly in side missions like transit and mercenary tasks, which detract from the overall experience.

- “Great music and visuals, interesting story to follow with entertaining gameplay.”
- “My first impression is that it has good graphics, nice storyline missions, nice layout and design.”
- “It's very cool... nice graphics... good story line... and overall awesome gameplay.”
- “I completed this game and I am feeling a little sad because the only thing you can do is just play missions that don't have a story.”

- “The train mission is totally impossible to finish unless you spend about £5.”

The graphics of the game have received widespread praise for their quality and visual appeal, with many users highlighting stunning visuals and smooth animations.

- “Graphics are great and the game runs smoothly with no issues at all.”
- “Fantastic graphics.”

- “But like what others have experienced, sometimes the graphics render incorrectly and I have to restart the game.”
- “Wow.. this game looks and plays beautifully until every 45 seconds a glitch occurs... graphics 10, playability without a game freezing glitch -74.”

Overall, the game's optimization is mixed; while it runs smoothly on high-end devices with impressive graphics, users report significant graphical errors and performance issues on lower-end devices, particularly with too many enemies on screen.

grinding

Reviews indicate that grinding in the game can be a mixed experience; while some players find it tolerable and rewarding in the long run, others criticize the limited rewards from missions, which can make progression feel slow and frustrating. The pay-to-win elements exacerbate this issue, as players may feel pressured to spend money to advance beyond certain tiers. Overall, the grinding aspect is seen as a significant part of the game, with varying opinions on its execution and impact on enjoyment.
- “It is great, for a pay-to-win game that is. My only problem with this game is that you don't get enough coins from the campaign mission rewards to level up your weapons to match the tier of missions (only 2.3k for completing a tier 5 mission, really?!). Of course, I could be playing wrong, or the creator wanted to make a grinding simulator. If the second option is true, they did a great job.”
- “I had an amazing game where I was grinding for hours for money and had finally reached the top tier in research, only for the game to blank out and reset my entire progress.”
- “Can be tedious until you finally get to the good weapons, but it's worth it.”
