Overall, the gameplay is generally well-received, with many players praising its smooth mechanics, enjoyable controls, and engaging graphics. However, there are consistent complaints about the game's pacing, limited modes, and the impact of paywalls on progression, which detracts from the overall experience. Players also express a desire for improved communication features and more immersive elements to enhance teamwork and strategy in gameplay.
“Gameplay is enjoyable, graphics are pretty good for mobile, and controls are decent.”
“The gameplay is terrific.”
“Amazing game 10/10 very few ads and fun gameplay I just started and it's really fun.”
“Gameplay gets a bit boring after a few matches; it could be more immersive. For example, when you capture the zone/flag, it could come up with a quick notification or +100, just like in Call of Duty. Battle music could be a bit more intense rather than how chill it is. Just little things like that would make me feel more involved.”
“The gameplay is not good.”
“This game has serious potential, but the actual gameplay is sloppy and sluggish.”

The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the lack of forced ads and reasonable in-app purchases, while others criticize the high costs of items and the prevalence of ads after gameplay. Many users report that in-app purchases can enhance gameplay but are not strictly necessary for progression, although some have experienced issues with purchases not activating. Overall, while some players enjoy the game without spending money, others feel that the monetization strategy leans towards being a cash grab, with frequent ads and expensive upgrades.
“Plenty of cars and weapon combos plus upgrades; in-game purchases are reasonable.”
“While there are in-app purchases available, so far they haven't been necessary to advance.”
“It has in-app purchases that will definitely give you a boost; however, they are not required.”
“The in-game purchases are way too expensive though, that's why I'm giving it 4 stars.”
“Chest system is the worst... the game is only made for making money from purchases and ads everywhere... no place for hard work or smart work in the game... you will only survive longer in this game if you purchase premium... money-minded developers.”
“Every month these guys develop new ways to make game progress slower so you can keep watching ads instead of playing the game.”

Many reviews highlight the lack of engaging content and maps, making the grinding feel monotonous and unrewarding.

“Grinding to level up or unlock new parts is ridiculously slow and not worth the time so far.”
“Progress is too slow, grinding takes forever, boring as there are only a few maps. In one word, it's a pay-to-win game with rockets flying through the buildings, game balance is skewed between top-range cars and basic cars.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players enjoying its match to the gameplay and others finding it repetitive and lacking intensity.

“The UI is perfect (Forza Horizon 4 style? Best!), music is so perfectly matched!”
“Nice concepts and graphics too. Smooth controls and stunning music.”
“Music is some of the worst I've ever heard; it's just as good as elevator music. The aiming of the guns is horrible; I think my three-year-old could come up with a better design for this game.”
“It's better than average, but it's kind of repetitive with the music and the maps. The fact that you can't really change your car means you have to use the same ones again and again.”
“Also, it's a very grindy game for one that looks like it has no future. The soundtrack is garbage, the graphics are okay, but I actually liked the controls.”

“Make a new update and fully optimize the game to make it feel very new. I'm not saying the game isn't good; this is the best game, but I need an update like this.”

“It needs better optimization for lower-end devices.”
“Terrible performance for basic phones.”
