First off I need to preface this with my fear of heights. This game literally brought me to my knees in fear, but I knew I had to keep going. It's so incredible, so immersive, that I wanted to look at everything yet every time I really looked around my real fear of heights would take over. I kneeled down so I could feel more stable and went through the entire experience on my knees. It's probably the most amazing experience I've had on the Vive so far. You absolutely have to try it, even if you have a fear of heights. It's even that more amazing that you're playing a game on a computer that invokes your real fears and emotions in that way. I would still do it again, even knowing what it's like. It's truely an incredible experience.

Early Access Review
This game is awesome. It's still in Early Access and only has infantry play, with vehicles and larger scaled command coming later. Even with only infantry it's amazing. You seriously need to be on your A game playing this because you'll get killed in a hurry running around like a lone wolf. Stay with your squad, you MUST work together to be successful, and communicate.

What I love about this game is that it has a lot of the realism of Arma without the 10 hours of learning the different buttons, and controls, etc. For people like me that are busy with work and home life, Arma is just too much to dedicate to, and I feel like this will be a perfect replacement to Arma anyway even if I did have the time.

When it's all said and done with full scale tactical warfare and vehicles and large scale command, it'll be amazing.

BTW, I have an AMD FX-8350 and GTX 970 and I play on High settings. I get 30-40 fps, rarely dipping below 30FPS. Make sure shadows are on Low, Shadow memory is on 512, and for my GTX 970 it's crucial that it's set to 3GB VRAM in the graphics settings. If I set it to 4GB the game is unplayable due to the GTX970 not having a true 4GB VRAM.

So for everyone saying the AMD CPU's are having so many issues, I'm not seeing it.
