Fun at the start, repetitive towards the end. 6/10

So having just finished the campaign to realise the multiplayer was not included at launch was a bit of a dissapointment. This game has been in development for years and in my honest opinon, the game does not reflect this. I believe a much smaller team of around 10 people could have achieved what this game has in the same time frame.

To start off the game is still very buggy and with simple things such as key bindings not working properly. I had to redo the prologue because i was stuck in a car and the exit button just would not work. Also for the whole game I was unable to pick up bodies from enimies I had just killed which meant I was constantly alerting other players when they saw them so I had to take them out quickly too. Got very annoying.

Pros:
-The sniping is fun, i had to turn the bullet cam off after the first few missions though as i found it more satisfying seeing the bullet hit the target from where you shot but this is totally optional.
-Open World
-Love the scope animations for changing the distance and the zeroing.

Cons:
-Bugs
-Repetitive
-Boring storyline, (Ending Sucked)
-Zeroing didn't seem to have much of an effect. I could scope in on most NPC's and when holding my breath still hit them at most distances.
-Missions are confined to an area of the map which means you rarely get over the 250m mark. Shame for a sniper game when you are wanting to make them insane long shots.

I feel as though they have been heavily inspired by Far Cry 3/4. It certainly feels like FarCry but it is no way near as good.

I would not buy this game if you are after good storytelling or a bug free game. If you want good storytelling, try out the above mention FarCry 3 or 4 or both. If you want bug free, wait a few months, although to me they have had plenty of time to sort out these bugs so a few months may not even see a fix.

Only buy if you want to get into the game and try be stealthy, and try out the sniping mechanics.

I got this game for £25 so at least I wasn't roped in and conned like No Man's Sky by buying it for £50 when it wasn't even what they advertised it as. For £25 this is not a bad purchase at all.

My overall opinion, if you have some spare money that you don't mind spending, get it. You may want to wait for the multiplayer to be added and for some bugs to be fixed first.
