  • grinding23 mentions

    The grinding aspect of the game has received mixed feedback, with many players noting it can be quite grindy, especially for free-to-play users, as they navigate through weapon tiers and unlocks. Some argue that the grind is manageable if players engage with the game's mechanics fully, while others feel it is exacerbated by a lack of content and a microtransaction model. Overall, while the grind can be frustrating, it is often seen as a typical feature of free-to-play games.

    • “It can be a bit grindy sometimes.”
    • “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
    • “Extremely grindy game, the currencies are exclusive to a specific weapon type (handgun/shotgun/bolt action, for example) and all guns have 4 tiers. It takes around 30 minutes to buy just a mid-range T1 pistol (and you have to begin with a crappy Makarov), not to mention their accessories and upgrades.”
    • “The game is massively grindy, presumably to sell microtransactions.”
  • graphics19 mentions

    The graphics of the game are generally viewed as outdated and simplistic, with many players noting that they do not meet modern standards, especially for a free-to-play title. While some appreciate the visuals and find them adequate for the gameplay experience, others criticize the robotic animations and lack of realism. Overall, the graphics may appeal to those who prioritize gameplay over visual fidelity, but they may disappoint players seeking cutting-edge aesthetics.

    • “Love the graphics and the weapon choices.”
    • “Graphics and animations are still pretty decent considering the game costs no money.”
    • “The game loads lightning fast and the graphics, though not exactly to triple-A standards, are pleasant to look at.”
    • “The graphics are severely outdated.”
    • “Graphically dated, not expecting UE5 realism quality, but it feels like it can be way better; animations are robotic too.”
    • “Being a spin-off/reuse of assets from World of Guns, it also shares its most obvious shortcomings: graphics from last century and weapons that sound like someone's hitting a cardboard box with a stick.”
  • monetization16 mentions

    The monetization in the game is heavily criticized for its reliance on microtransactions, which many players feel detracts from the overall experience. While some users acknowledge that microtransactions are common in such games, they express frustration over the grindy nature of gameplay designed to push purchases, with some even stating that progression feels nearly impossible without spending money. Overall, the sentiment is mixed, with some players willing to support the game through membership purchases, but many others lament the intrusive nature of the monetization model.

    • “So far no microtransactions; I did buy the membership to support the game.”
    • “Finally, a game about IPSC, but sadly it was published by the same company as World of Guns. Yes, there are microtransactions, but hopefully they don't add more useless DLC like WOG had.”
    • “I understand games like this will have microtransactions somewhere, but was there like a free trial period I wasn't made aware of; a glitch?”
    • “The only real downside is that it's a bit heavy on microtransactions.”
    • “Another great game by this company, completely ruined by microtransactions.”
    • “The game is massively grindy, presumably to sell microtransactions.”
