The verdict
A deep, immersive milsim sandbox with great sound, visuals and mod support, held back by crashes, poor performance and updates that break mods. Skip it if you want fast action or a polished solo game.
Great for
Patient, teamwork-minded players who like realistic milsim, modded servers and chaotic emergent moments with friends
Main risk
Crashes, poor performance, mod download hassles and updates that break things can eat your playtime
