  • Ambitious and innovative concept of a persistent PvPvE open world with base building and dynamic world influence.
  • Developers actively listen to player feedback and frequently release major updates and patches, showing commitment to improvement.
  • Core gameplay elements like gunplay and vehicle mechanics are already enjoyable and show promise despite being in early access.
  • Game suffers from severe optimization issues, frequent crashes, long loading screens, and poor performance even on high-end hardware.
  • Numerous bugs and glitches including poor AI behavior, floating assets, missing audio, clunky UI, and broken or incomplete features.
  • Early access release feels premature with empty worlds, spawn camping problems, lack of player population, and many unfinished systems.

    Optimization for the game is currently poor, with many users experiencing lag, stuttering, and high system requirements despite decent hardware. However, ongoing patches and improvements are gradually enhancing performance, and some players with high-end systems report smooth gameplay. The game is still in alpha, so significant optimization work remains necessary.

    • “Multiple patches, performance improvements, NPC changes, and major new features show that it’s moving in the right direction.”
    • “Running the game on an i9-11900k paired with an RTX 4080, I experienced a completely smooth experience without any noticeable performance or optimization issues.”
    • “Patch notes are dropping constantly (vehicle ram damage, audio fixes, crash squashing, real performance work on the bigger fights) and you can feel the game tightening up patch to patch instead of stagnating like a lot of EA titles do.”
    • “You know the optimization will not be fixed for a long time, because UE5 takes actual skill in C++ and manual garbage collection, which these devs will have to learn from the beginning.”
    • “I felt like I was playing a lagging, stuttering mobile game that was poorly optimized for PC.”
    • “Performance is unjustifiably poor, and system requirements are unusually high for an MMO-lite.”
  • gameplay

    Gameplay features a fun and smooth core loop with top-notch gun mechanics and engaging ranged combat, though some core mechanics occasionally conflict and missions can become repetitive. The persistent, PvPvE world offers a unique blend of tactical extraction shooter tension and base-building complexity, showing great potential despite its current unpolished state. Updates have improved vehicle usage, hitbox accuracy, and crafting, making gameplay accessible yet deep, with many players already enjoying successful sessions even in alpha.

    • “Gun mechanics are top notch and ranged attacks are super fun.”
    • “The core mechanics are easy to learn for anyone familiar with FPS games, making it accessible without sacrificing depth.”
    • “Most importantly, despite being in alpha, I've already had many enjoyable and successful gameplay sessions.”
    • “It seems that some of the core mechanics are in conflict with each other right now.”
    • “But yeah, I cannot even begin to comment on gameplay.”
    • “Gameplay loop is decent.”
  • story

    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    21% positive mentions, 58% neutral mentions, 21% negative mentions

    The story presents an engaging world where player actions and completed missions dynamically shape the map and faction power balance in real-time. While the concept is promising, the current implementation features basic, somewhat repetitive missions with limited PvP encounters and lacks tutorials or shared mission support. Overall, the narrative foundation shows strong potential but needs further development to fully realize its immersive PvP-driven storyline.

    • “I joined the game for the potential of what it can be with a world story unfolding against a PvP backdrop.”
    • “The idea that your actions and completed missions for individual factions reshape the map and influence the balance of power in real-time sounds fantastic on paper.”
    • “What shipped on May 29th tells a story that goes beyond a rough early access launch.”
    • “The servers aren’t crowded yet, so PvP encounters are rare, while the AI and repetitive missions still need work.”
    • “Some basic quests and missions are in place but need to be built out; there should be more variety and the ability to re-roll missions to find those you want.”
    • “Could use a tutorial on getting started, such as where to customize weapons/loadouts and where to get missions, especially for players unfamiliar with gaming.”
  • graphics

    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    40% positive mentions, 30% neutral mentions, 30% negative mentions

    The graphics receive mixed feedback, with some praising their realism and overall quality, especially night visuals, while others critique outdated elements, placeholder art, and the need for optimization. Performance issues such as low frame rates on recommended hardware and graphical bugs are also noted.

    • “As someone who has spent time in a combat zone, the night visuals are extremely accurate.”
    • “The graphics are absolutely incredible.”
    • “The gunplay feels good, graphics look nice, and I had fun running around the world.”
    • “Graphics look like 15 years ago; the tutorial is just 10 messages with no clear instructions on what to do.”
    • “Bugs and artifacts - placeholder artwork like 'insert fence here,' a lot of basic stuff and general cleanup needed.”
    • “The graphics need more optimization.”
  • stability

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, including bugs, glitches, and poor optimization affecting visuals, animations, and sound. While some glitches can be amusing and not game-breaking, the overall experience remains frustrating and in need of substantial developer attention.

    • “Poorly optimized, buggy, poor visual effects, poor character animations, poor sound effects... all around not worth it.”
    • “I played this game for a bit, it had potential, but the game itself is buggy still.”
    • “All this time in, updates, no one still plays it, it's still very buggy.”
  • grinding

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Grinding in the game is well-balanced and engaging, with enjoyable gunplay and efficient mechanics like double-click looting that reduce tediousness. Experience gains from missions feel rewarding without being overly grindy, reflecting the developers' dedicated efforts.

    The game’s atmosphere is highly praised for its detailed, visually impressive environments powered by Unreal Engine, creating a convincing and immersive war-torn world. However, some users feel the addition of a soundtrack could further enhance emotional intensity and immersion.

    • “The visual presentation powered by Unreal Engine delivers a truly atmospheric and war-torn world.”
    • “Visually, the game is impressive, with detailed environments and a strong sense of atmosphere that helps bring the world to life.”
    • “In the future, I would love to see a soundtrack added, as it can create a more immersive atmosphere as well as intensify emotions.”

    Users find the humor in the game's quirky animations and unexpected NPC behaviors, such as repeatedly popping back up after being hit. These moments, including chaotic and amusing encounters, add a lighthearted and entertaining touch to the gameplay.

    • “The NPCs pop back up when you run them over - it's a bit weird, but pretty funny to see how many times you need to hit them to kill them.”
    • “One random encounter ended with both of us panic killing each other at the same time, which was honestly pretty funny; I wasn't even mad.”
