This game was bound to die. It's now dead, and the other version by the same name is not worth playing at all.

This game had all the makings of a horrible game:

- Engagement Optimized Matchmaking (puts newer players against high level veteran players in unbalanced, unfair matches to encourage them to buy stuff when they get destroyed)

- Pay To Win gear. You can buy special bullets that deal more damage, etc. You can buy special explosives that can automatically kill someone for you without you actively trying to kill someone. You can buy lootboxes that have guns that have boosts on them.

- Gambling mechanics. Yep, there's the surprise mechanics aka lootboxes! You pay, you loose your money and get nothing nice in return... unless you are the luckiest person on earth! Oh, and they're more expensive in this game than in a lot of other games. ♥♥♥♥♥♥ all around!

- Predatory progression. The cancer of modern gaming! You must unlock everything by playing for thousands of hours, or pay up! This really only hurts new players (as they only get lousy, barebones guns while the veterans are fully kitted out with things like "detector sights" that highlight enemies bright red like an ESP hack). That's a P2W tactic, especially when combined with the unfair matchmaking. The repair system just reinforces this ♥♥♥♥♥♥ progression by taking away the very little in-game credits you have earned.

- Trash netcode. Ever since this game was in early access (even before the Steam releases) this game has always had the worst netcode known to man/womankind! If you see someone who is "cheating" it might actually just be the bad netcode and desync that makes it appear that they are using a "wallhack". This game is that bad!
The only ones who don't seem to be affected so much by the horrible netcode are the veterans... hmmm I wonder why... oh that's why... the smart players who saw all the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ P2W mechanics and horrible netcode left the game, leaving only the hardcore shills left over!

- Cheaters. Despite the trash netcode above, there are still plenty of cheaters. One common cheat is to remove recoil from the guns using scripts, the other common cheats are to use wallhacks and radar hacks. There's a quite a few people saying that there aren't cheaters, but it's very obvious there are cheaters when you see someone killing you with a flick without having even seeing you in the first place.

- Bad developers/moderators. They'll ban you if you criticize the game. They are corrupt as fnck! They do not care about you, they only want your money. The developers are not just greedy, but also incompetent! This game has bad netcode as explained earlier, but also lots of bugs. I had to do a lot grinding for tons of hours just to unlock a gun, but then later it would just disappear out of my inventory upon logging in to my next session. Did I ever get the gun back from support? NO! All they told me was they couldn't find any record of having bought the gun.

- Toxic community. Above all else, a lot of the community (particularly veterans) defends the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ practices and will harass newer players (especially if the new players complain about the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of the game). Veterans love to pubstomp new players and ruin the game for them, despite the game giving them every advantage.
Some of them are "smurfing" as well (basically creating a brand new account just to play against newer players more so they can destroy them, despite having already spent hundreds or thousands of hours in game).
They're only here to go on ego trips and make fancy videos for YouTube so they can get ad revenue and special treatment from the devs and mods.
A lot of idiots have said that this game needs more publicity, but honestly it already had a ton of chances! This game was promoted by a number of large YouTubers, to which this game saw a huge spike of players (that overloaded the servers at times) before they lost the majority of them because of the ♥♥♥♥ that was just described earlier in this review.

- SCAMS. Lastly all players of this game lost their progress and purchases! During the shutdown of the Aeria Games version, they did not migrate the progress of players. The incompetent developers said they couldn't migrate progress because of GDPR, but that is honestly a lie! All they would have to do is offer an optional account linking feature to migrate one's progress and purchases to the Wiple Games version. This would result in no violation of GDPR, as it doesn't automatically collect user data without intervention. Other game have done this to great success, but as greedy as the developers are they just saw an oppurtunity to lie and scam players out of stuff they paid for so they they could potentially exploit them into paying again. It's ♥♥♥♥ and this practice should be punished! The reason the Aeria Games version was shut down is because Wiple and Aeria had some internal company issues. We were told that Aeria violated contract agreements, but really something seems SUS here.
The end result is that veteran players would be forced to start over as a level 1 player in the Wiple Games version, basically making the "smurfing" problem worse!

If I had one good thing to say about this game, it's that it was "F2P", unlike Call Of Duty which this game is a near direct ripoff of. Both this game and Call Of Duty have similar dis-qualities like Engagement Optimized Matchmaking, Predatory progression, and P2W mechanics. They biggest difference is that Call Of Duty demands you pay $60 fncking dollars every year upfront on a new title before they can exploit you for more cash.
