The verdict
A hardcore milsim sandbox with excellent gun and gear customization and mod support. The 1.0 release has only two campaign missions and brutal, aimbot-like AI, so skip it if you want a finished solo game.
Great for
Milsim fans who love gun and loadout customization, mods, and co-op with friends
Main risk
Paying for a "1.0" with only two campaign missions and overtuned enemy AI
What changed in the last 30 days
59 recent reviews
Recent negative reviews blame 1.0 for brutal AI that kills from long range even on low settings, only two campaign missions, and a sense the game got worse than early access.
