There´s a steep learning curve, as the game simply does not explain anything, aside from the youtube tutorial, which is very shallow. Watch a video from Task Force Gaming, which is 23 minutes long, and then you´ll see what this game is about. Its basically the BeamNG Drive of guns and Mil-Sim. All the weaponry are vastly customizable, with all the real names and brand and etc. Once you have your weapon built, shooting bad guys is deeply satisfying. 10/10
So while this game has potential I would say there are a couple of things majorly holding it back at the time of writing: 1. The maps - they are very basic without any really environmental storytelling, it's a mish mash of clean UE5 assets just placed randomly on a map. Now I will accept for some people that may be fine but in my opinion a lot of them would be something you find in a really early build alpha. They could be placeholders and I hope they are as better maps means a better more immersive game. Kabul streets for example, every building has the same texture, there's no differentiation. They could add some partial collapses, bullet holes, smoke damage and fires etc. The same goes for the roads and the random same few cars with their doors open just placed on the road. Why not have them look damaged? Why not have one or two on fire? Something to make it look more like there has been some kind of firefight. Perhaps some craters from explosions in the road? It would really benefit the immersion if it looked more realistic. Another example would be the boat map which is just an empty boat that has some sizing issues IMO. It's too narrow (yes I get CQB) but the character gets stuck and collides at multiple points on the map. Also enemies just hiding in empty rooms is a bit odd. It could be a yacht with some different enemies on, maybe cartel with private security. Make it slightly larger and place some furniture down to create angles and lines of sight. There are other examples but these were the quickest to explain and worst offenders. 2. The UI - gun customisation is good but the UI for it (and in general) does detract from it. It needs a real tidy up rather than the long list with drop downs it currently has. Again this is something that could easily be polished before it gets to full release and would improve the experience vastly. 3. The cult like following that attack you if you say anything remotely negative about the game. I was accused of lying and misrepresentation by someone in the comments section of a video (which was covering a different game) because I expressed the above areas where I think it could improve. This was in response to the suspicious spam of comments saying "don't play this game get operator instead". Apparently gaming isn't subjective and because they think the maps are fine that makes me wrong and I am being disingenuous? It's just opinion and we can all have different ones. Again, this was after they had commented on coverage of another game dumping on that and promoting Operator instead. This is happening on a co-ordinated level on every video by the looks of it. Which is a major red flag. The community are entitled to their opinion but they should not need to tear down another game to promote this instead. So ultimately yes this game has potential but there are core parts of the experience which are a long way behind the competitors. There are also areas and features it has which are ahead of it's competition. The gun customisation is great (not the UI), the manual chambering is a cool feature, the gunplay feels good for the most part (maybe lacks a bit of recoil?), the animations are really good and it certainly offers lots of different ways to approach an objective. It's also some achievement from what I believe is a solo dev. My point is it wouldn't harm to have an actual level designer give all the maps a once over, some parts of game dev need specialists in my opinion. The rest can just be fixed on the road to full release. If you like tactical shooters then this game will appeal to you but it does have room for growth. I hope this is seen as constructive feedback. I won't mention the AI as I can't think of any game which has completely nailed it in this genre, it's an issue in all of the games. Game runs well and looks nice on my setup.
