The verdict
A large-scale three-team King of the Hill shooter blending Battlefield and Arma, with a cash economy that rewards teamwork. Skip it if you can't grind: gear gaps, wipes, cheaters and balance hurt.
Great for
Players wanting a sandbox Arma/Battlefield middle ground with teamwork, logistics and building, and plenty of free time
Main risk
Grind and seasonal wipes let high-hour players with top gear dominate casual players
