The game's story aspect is criticized for its lack of depth and variety, with many players expressing a desire for more engaging and realistic mission objectives beyond simply capturing areas.

- “I really love the concept of tactic cards; it makes a mission easier.”
- “Characters expire, pay to win, poor gameplay mechanics, no good story, etc.”

- “This game is very very bad. I am going to the mission area and the game stopped without any reason. Please don't install it.”

Overall, the gameplay is widely praised for its smooth controls, fun mechanics, and engaging combat, making it an enjoyable experience for many players. However, some users express concerns about outdated mechanics like the energy bar, repetitive gameplay, and issues with matchmaking and bot-like behavior from opponents.

- “Gameplay is great, controls are smooth.”
- “The gameplay is simple, yet fun.”
- “Awesome gameplay, cool customizations, requires strategy, smooth gameplay, what more could you ask for?”
- “It's fun, but the energy bar to do stuff is an outdated mechanic.”
- “Its a decent game, only thing is it feels a whole lot like I'm playing against bots. I can be in a firefight and I can sneak up to their respawn, and the captain (supposed to be my opponent player) will act completely like the other bots. Every game it's the same; after years of playing this, Hothead Games haven't even updated anything at all and never listened to us. And don't get me started with the firing mechanics.”
- “The match making and game mechanics are absolutely horrible.”
